This research is motivated by the problem of conspiracy between idealism and power in the context of critical discourse analysis studies. The domination of power makes idealism lose its resonance as a pillar of truth and justice which is marked by resistance and trust from its readers. This needs to be studied academically with The van Leeuwen's theory in the perspective of critical discourse analysis. The purpose of this study is to photograph the relationship between power and idealism, marginalization, and conspiracies of the mass media and their readers.

The source of the research data was obtained from the Nusantara column in the Waspada newspaper by analyzing the items per sentence according to Theo van Leeuwen's theory. Keywords: Idealism, Power, Critical Discourse Analysis
