History on Vietnam War EE - Refining my RQ

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I am writing a history EE on media and news coverage effecting U.S. policy towards Vietnam during the 1963 Buddhist Crisis.
This is my current "tentative" RQ (which I'll probably work on rewording better soon):  How did media and news coverage in the U.S. effect United States policy towards Vietnam during the 1963 Buddhist Crisis?

I have multiple questions regarding my paper... 

From my understanding, this paper cannot be narrative and a summary of events. I'm not really sure how to prevent from doing that because my sources are very straightforward about media and U.S. foreign policy towards Vietnam. Do I need to reword my question, or am I just perceiving/understanding my question wrong? 

I have around 8/9 sources, most of them are scholarly papers that provide a rich amount of information. (I am still in the preliminary stages of this paper.) For a history EE, what is the "appropriate" amount of sources? 

Thank you very much!
