A Study on the Disaster Report Pattern of the Domestic Media Related to the Disater Process

The purpose of this study is to examine a series of processes in which disasters proceed and recover from the aspect of domestic media coverage. To this end, the media coverage of disasters from 2015 to 2021 was analyzed. In addition, in-depth interviews with experts related to the disaster reporting process were conducted to examine the perceptions of experts. The analysis results were as follows. For articles containing 'disaster', a total of 23,189 articles were searched for 7 years from 2015 to 2021, disaster articles including the word 'response' were searched the most, and disaster articles including the keyword 'recovery' were the least. In addition, in the qualitative analysis, due to competition for breaking news, there were many reports centered on 'events' after the disaster, and there was a lack of skilled professional reporters to cover the disaster scene. The results of this study have implications for the aspect of disaster reporting in the media.
