Media is the biggest source of information to the public at large. It educates people about the events going on all over the world through varied sources ranging from traditional print media in the form of newspapers all through modes of modern/digital media through a click of a button.
Of the many things that media is useful for, one of its purposes which has been studied closely is its ability to establish quick communication channels with the public during disasters and crises’ - both natural and also corporate. In light of COVID-19, the media has further strengthened its presence in the world as it was one of the main sources of information that the public turned to for information regarding the virus. However, where some useful information was provided, there was also a fair amount of misinformation spread. It is on this basis that this paper looks at how sometimes the media can bring calm but equally also spread chaos when information is unchecked and spread.
