The current global financial and economic crisis is generating a good number of studies about its media coverage. One of the recurring ideas is that in the years before the crisis the media were unable to warn of the risks that exist in the financial system, and during the crisis, they are simplistic and alarmist. In this paper we review expert opinions and recent studies that address those two questions. The main conclusion of this paper is that there is no consensus on the assessment about media journalistic performance, before the crisis, or after.
