Abstract

This study analyzes the representation of humanitarian crisis in the photo story “Famine in Somalia” by James Nachtwey using the semiotic approach of Roland Barthes. This research applies a descriptive qualitative method with Barthes’ three levels of meaning: denotation, connotation, and myth. The data consist of seven selected photographs from the 1992 series, collected through observation, documentation, and literature review.The findings show that at the denotative level, the images depict famine victims’ physical conditions, including emaciated bodies and barren environments. At the connotative level, they represent suffering, helplessness, and social inequality. At the myth level, the photos construct the idea that humanitarian crises are shaped not only by natural factors but also by political failure and global injustice.Overall, the study highlights that photojournalism functions as visual documentation, social criticism, and a medium to evoke public awareness and empathy toward humanitarian issues.

Abstract

This study, entitled Press Restriction and Control in the Novel Jejak Langkah by Pramoedya Ananta Toer, examines the dynamics of colonial power over the indigenous press as represented in the third volume of the Buru Quartet. The novel portrays the socio-political conditions of the Dutch East Indies during the early phase of the national awakening through the experiences of Minke, an educated native who engages in journalism as a form of resistance against colonial injustice. This research is guided by two main problem formulations: how the Dutch colonial government imposed forms of restriction and control over press activities carried out by Minke in the novel Jejak Langkah, and how such restrictions and controls affected Minke’s movement and ideological development. This study employs a qualitative approach using literary text analysis, with data obtained from primary sources (the novel Jejak Langkah) and secondary sources such as books, journals, and relevant scholarly works. The analysis is framed using the theory of disciplinary power proposed by Michel Foucault. The findings reveal that colonial authorities exercised control over the press through censorship, strict press regulations, legal sanctions, economic pressure, and exile. These mechanisms functioned as instruments to suppress critical discourse and maintain colonial dominance. Furthermore, these restrictions significantly influenced Minke’s transformation from an individual-oriented thinker into a figure with collective awareness, emphasizing organized resistance and public advocacy. In conclusion, the novel Jejak Langkah reflects not only the historical reality of colonial press suppression but also the enduring tension between media and power. The struggle experienced by Minke demonstrates that press freedom is the result of continuous resistance against control, making the novel relevant to contemporary discussions on media independence.

Abstract

This study is entitled The Application of Journalism Principles in The Post. This research discusses how journalism principles are represented through scenes, dialogues, and characters’ actions in The Post. The background of this study is based on the importance of applying journalism principles in mass media practices, especially in delivering information related to public interest. The Post was chosen because it portrays the struggle of journalists and newspaper editors in revealing the confidential Pentagon Papers amid political pressure, legal threats, and power interests. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with the semiotic approach of Roland Barthes. The analysis was conducted through three levels of meaning: denotation, connotation, and myth. This research also applies the theory of the nine elements of journalism proposed by Bill Kovach and Tom Rosenstiel as the main analytical framework. The results of the study show that The Post represents various journalism principles, such as obligation to the truth, loyalty to citizens, discipline of verification, independence, monitoring power, providing a public forum, making important issues interesting and relevant, keeping news proportional and comprehensive, and exercising personal conscience. These representations are shown through newsroom activities, editorial decision-making processes, and the courage of journalists in revealing information to the public. The conclusion of this study indicates that The Post functions not only as entertainment media but also as a representation of values, ethics, and social responsibility in journalism practice.

Abstract

This scientific research was conducted to examine more deeply the representation of investigative journalism as an enforcer of truth in the film A Taxi Driver. The background of this study is the increasingly blurred nature of truth amid the rapid flow of information and the pressure exerted by those in power on the media, making it necessary to understand how investigative journalism is represented as an effort to reveal facts to the public. The film A Taxi Driver was chosen because it portrays the practice of investigative journalism during the 1980 Gwangju Uprising, a historical event rich in humanitarian values and courage. This study aims to analyze the representation of investigative journalism as an enforcer of truth in the film. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method with a text research approach. Data were collected through non-participant observation of film scenes, documentation analysis of dialogues, visuals, and narratives, as well as literature review. No respondents or informants were involved, as the study focused on media content analysis. The findings reveal that the film represents investigative journalism as a courageous, independent, and truth-oriented practice through the actions of journalists who strive to uncover facts concealed by those in power. Furthermore, the film highlights moral values, courage, and social responsibility as essential elements of the journalistic profession. In conclusion, A Taxi Driver portrays investigative journalism as a vital instrument in upholding truth and delivering factual information to society despite various risks and challenges
