The "Five O'Clock Follies" was a term used to describe the daily press briefings held by the U.S. military in Vietnam during the Vietnam War, typically occurring at 5 PM. These briefings often included optimistic reports on military progress and success, which many journalists found to be overly optimistic or misleading. The name reflects the skepticism and irony surrounding the information presented, as journalists began to recognize a significant gap between official reports and the reality on the ground. The briefings became a symbol of the government's attempts to control the narrative of the war.
