Tensions rise on coronavirus handling as the media take control of the accountability narrative
Interesting outline of the phases of media coverage. Impact and response are the first two phases, and the third is accountability, i.e. the blame game.
When an issue is close to home, local media are often slower to get to accountability than media further away, because the people who are directly impacted, and who they are directly communicating with, may still be focussed on the first two phases.
