This article presents the results of a research conducted with the aim of understanding the relationship between this pandemic and the environment, a crucial issue at this juncture because the global spread of COVID19 became a moment to rethink our relationship with the planet, an issue that the media contribute to debate. An analysis was made of the journalistic coverage in El Tiempo and El Espectador during the three months of strict confinement. The methodology used was the analysis of the informative treatment based on the categories of coverage and deployment within the framework of a media convergence. Among the main findings, we found a high source of information from agencies; predominance of news as a genre and an average number of sources consulted whose quality favors the diversity of voices and interests. In addition, the predominant topic in El Espectador is the reduction of contamination by confinement, while in El Tiempo it is actions unfavorable to the environment. The general environmental approach in the publications is anthropocentric and the journalistic narrative follows the analogous logics, missing the potentialities of the digital ecosystem.

Palabras clave : COVID-19; environment; informative treatment; coverage; deployment; pandemic; media convergence.
