The Important Role of Journalism During Ovid 19

While the pandemic COVID-19 is encompassing the globe, independent journalism has never been more important than it is now. Access to reliable and accurate information is a matter of life or death, literally speaking.

New Study Published by UN and I CFJ (International Journalists Network) today identifies quality journalism as a major force for identifying and exposing disinformation. It also reveals that the viral charge of disinformation will increase, only if journalism continues to suffer “fatal blow” caused by pandemic.

In 2 analysis reports, ensuring that journalism survives the COVIID-19 is a critical challenge for the UN mission, governments and others trying to fight what is called “idration”.

In the first report we have identified nine different topics of dyzinfodemia, and four typical forms. In the second report, we review critically ten methods of response to the crisis that are being used against COVID's disinformation-19 worldwide.

Many of the legal and political steps being implemented are designed to protect public health. But as they present themselves as "couroura," some of these steps may hinder the work of journalists and others involved in vital research, investigations and confessions of pandemics as journalists. / world.al
