In this book, Foss makes sense of how this contemporary media landscape shaped the public’s knowledge and perceptions of the COVID-19 pandemic. This landscape kept people informed and connected, but also led to the politicization of the virus, rampant mis/disinformation, and stigmatizing messaging that contributed to public distrust and division.
