For the purpose of this study, examples were drawn from various news articles published on CNN Philippines, Inquirer.net, and pna.gov.ph that covered the years 2020 and 2021. The analysis makes use of the Nvivo software to produce a Word Cloud, which is a list of the terms and keywords that occurred the most frequently over the specified time period. Additionally, the percentage of variable analysis, also known as the percentage of media reporting narratives against predetermined variables, was also calculated. The variables that were used in this study were UNWTO recommendations that were compiled in relation to the tourism sector as a response to the impacts caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
