Abstract

This study analyzes the gatekeeping process in the production of the news item “Festival Tabut Bengkulu 2026 Akan Digelar Meriah” at KompasTV Bengkulu and examines the conformity of the final news product with the Indonesian Broadcasting Code of Conduct and Broadcast Program Standards. The study applied a descriptive qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, newsroom observation, and documentation. The informants included the bureau chief and producer, a journalist, an editor of KompasTV Bengkulu, and a monitoring analyst from KPID Bengkulu. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that gatekeeping operates through five interconnected levels. At the individual level, editorial decisions are shaped by the division of roles among journalist, producer, and editor. At the media routines level, production proceeds through projection meetings, field reporting, script writing, visual short listing, voice over, editing, and double checking. At the organizational level, a two-tier coordination mechanism connects the Bengkulu bureau and the central editorial office. At the social institutions level, the public, social media, and local government serve as information sources without determining the final substance of the news. At the social system level, cultural proximity, journalistic ethics, and broadcasting standards guide the selection and presentation of news. The final news product was considered broadcast-worthy and compliant with broadcasting standards based on KPID Bengkulu validation.

Abstract

This study analyzes the implementation of the Journalistic Code of Ethics in news production at the KompasTV Bengkulu editorial newsroom. The study is grounded in the importance of journalistic ethics in maintaining the quality, credibility, and public trust of local television media. A descriptive qualitative approach was applied, using interviews, observation, and documentation as data collection techniques. The informants consisted of the bureau chief and producer, journalist, presenter, and editor who were directly involved in the news production process. Data were analyzed through reduction, display, and conclusion drawing, while source triangulation was used to strengthen validity. The findings show that KompasTV Bengkulu implements journalistic ethics across all stages of news production, from coverage planning, information verification, script writing, visual and audio editing, to news delivery to the public. The implementation is reflected in the principles of independence, accuracy, balance, professionalism, protection of sensitive sources, separation between editorial and business interests, and readiness to provide correction and right of reply. From the perspective of social responsibility theory, the practice appears through voluntary commitment, stakeholder engagement, sustainability, and business ethics. The study confirms that the Journalistic Code of Ethics serves as both a moral and operational guideline for the newsroom in producing accurate, balanced, ethical, and trustworthy news.
