[ORDER SOLUTION] Emergency Management and Disaster Response
Emergency management communications involve sharing information with the community through proper and appropriate uses of media outlets. Relationships between media outlets and emergency managers sometimes are strained and full of conflict.

A message delivered to one group could have different meanings for other groups.
