Kerala, God’s own Country, was taken aback with the devastating flood in August. More than 350 people lost their lives. Thousands of people remained marooned, animals were killed, houses were submerged, and vehicles were floating. The damage doesn’t end there. According to the government, the State met with a loss of Rs. 20,000 crore. Malayalam Television news channels covered the flood 24*7 without a break. Some of them set up helpdesks to pass information on the missing, the stranded, and the rescue efforts. Breathtaking visuals of floods were also aired. Every minute aspect of rescue operations and flood were communicated. We know that a visual speaks a thousand words. In the case of Kerala flood, some visuals created panic. Some were soothing and some were informative. This study attempts to analyze the impact of visuals aired by Malayalam television channels on women in Kuttanad.
