RUSI Workshop - The Role of the Media in Emergencies
11th September 2008
The media has a vital role to play during emergencies such as major terrorist attacks, large-scale flooding or pandemic flu and also in their immediate aftermath. The Civil Contingencies Act 2004 places upon the Government a duty to communicate with the public, but gives little guidance on how this should be done, or through what media such messages are best delivered. During an emergency, those caught up in events are much more likely to turn to 24 news channels and local radio than to Government or Local Authority sources.
