There is no denying that media outreach has expanded more than ever, and people now are inclined to instant and easy access to information. As a result, media can be very effective as a one-way propaganda tool for conveying governments’ political policies, enabling them to disseminate information more quickly. With the social distancing policies due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of media by government agencies for circulating information to the public has increased.
