New research shows how news coverage influences countries' emergency aid budgets (Neiman lab)

Press/Media: Media Coverage or Contribution

Description

The news media cover humanitarian crises selectively. Events associated with clear, dramatic imagery, such as the 2020 Beirut port explosion, often receive intense global news coverage. By contrast, protracted humanitarian crises that are more difficult to access and explain to audiences, such as the civil war in Yemen that has been raging since 2014, are often scarcely reported — even if the level of need is far greater.
