Looking back, I still can't believe how unprofessional the news media was. So much spin, so few hard facts. All those digestible sound bites from an army of 'experts' all contradicting one another, all trying to seem more 'shocking' and 'in-depth' than the last one. It was all so confusing, nobody seemed to know what to do.
The author reflects on the chaotic state of news coverage during a crisis, highlighting a pervasive lack of professionalism. The media presented information with heavy spin and offered few concrete facts. This created a confusing environment where audiences were bombarded with sensationalized sound bites from various 'experts', all of whom often contradicted one another.
This overwhelming information tumult led to uncertainty, as the public struggled to grasp the reality of the situation. Instead of clarity, the media's approach seemed intent on shock value, ultimately leaving everyone uncertain about the truth and how to respond effectively.
