The communication of the Coronavirus crisis in Spain has two unexpected components: the rise of the information on social networks, especially WhatsApp, and the consolidation of TV programs on mystery and esotericism. Both have emerged to “tell the truth” in opposition to official sources and public media. For a country with a long history of treating science and the media as properties of the state, this very radical development has surprised communication scholars.

西班牙的冠状病毒：对“官方”虚假新闻的恐惧助长了WhatsApp和其他来源

西班牙冠状病毒危机的传播有两个意想不到的组成部分：社交网络（尤其是WhatsApp）上信息的兴起，以及关于神秘和神秘主义的电视节目的整合。两者都出现了“讲真话”，与官方消息来源和公共媒体相反。对于一个将科学和媒体视为国家财产的悠久历史的国家来说，这种非常激进的发展使传播学者感到惊讶。
