The outbreak of COVID now is a tremendous crisis for the States, which undoubtedly posted chanllenges towards those news genenators. I wonder how well can the Huffpost maintain the normal coverage during the emergency time and will bring they brings their advantages into a full play.
Firstly, HuffPost did maintain their original coverage on the very updated opinion and new species related to coronavirus instead of using the sources from Associate Press. Besides the stories that reported on Trump’s solutions dealing with covid, the Huffpost brings its humor to their Life pieces, such as the analysis the motives of people stockpilng the toilet papers. Many of the culture and lifestyle pieces are written by the guest writers who sent their real freestyle opinion to Huffpost during their self-quarantine time. In some way, the Huffpost can be a free speak-up space for the people who have a compelling life story to tell during such a special time.
For the video section, the headline video is about “how do you explain the covid to your kids”. It addressed a few realistic home health edcuation issue and provided the most professtional and apporachable solutions. Their podcast videos are still updating as normal to keep their auidence entertained during their self-quarantine life.
Overall, the Huffpost is still well functioned by its staff writers and guest writers together over a tough time. I believe its priority is still constantly offering the fresh and relaxing life pieces for its readers in the most “boring” and anxious year.
