For many people, news media still are the most important source of information on science (e.g. Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy 2020). The picture of science presented in these media is strongly influenced by the sources journalists use in their coverage. Numerous studies have shown a strong dependence of science journalism on a small number of prestigious science journals (Schäfer 2011). However, some authors have suggested that this low source diversity has changed over time due to the easier accessibility of research publications online (Kiernan 2016). The COVID-19 pandemic could also have influenced journalistic source preferences, leading to an increased use of new sources or an even stronger reliance on high impact medical journals. These potential changes have yet to be investigated for a larger sample of media titles.
