Abstract
Content alignment in news media was an observable information effect of
Covid-19's initial phase. During the first half of 2020, legacy news
media became "corona news" following national outbreak and crises
management patterns. While news media are neither unbiased nor
infallible as sources of events, they do provide a window into
socio-cultural responses to events. In this paper, we use legacy print
media to empirically derive the principle News Information Decoupling
(NID) that functions as an information signature of culturally
significant catastrophic event. Formally, NID can provide input to
change detection algorithms and points to several unsolved research
problems in the intersection of information theory and media studies.
