Not sure which "media" you got this from, myocarditis cases were first reported in young athletes with Covid, then army personnel that was vaccinated, if I remember correctly. The absolute risk is very small though, a lot smaller than e.g. driving a car.

Here is a example from NBC[0]. The headline is: "No, the COVID-19 vaccine does not cause myocarditis", the content does not line up with the assertion the headline makes and sort of weasel words it's way to "well it does but less then Covid", but most people just read the headline. I think media like this is what confused people to think: "the COVID-19 vaccine does not cause myocarditis". I've heard similar assertions on shows like The View and Good Morning America, but I don't have clips.
