Abstract

Background: This study is based on the emerging contradiction regarding trust in journalism studies. Initially, trust is the main source of legitimacy that cannot be negotiated for news media. In contrast, this has limited the media’s commercial operating space to sustain its organizational economics. The closest example is local media, which has been trying to strengthen trust to maintain its legitimacy. Purpose: This study analyzes how actors at Radio Suara Surabaya construct and negotiate trust through metajournalistic discourse, along with its implications for journalistic legitimacy and the organization’s economic sustainability. Methods: This research used a qualitative approach, employing a discursive case study design that positions Radio Suara Surabaya as a reflective case. Primary data were obtained through focus group discussions (FGDs) involving editorial and managerial actors, and supplemented by the organization’s historical documents and previous research. Results: For the actors, trust is built through a lengthy institutional process that serves as a moral compass for journalistic practices. However, trust also creates pressure from rising public expectations, and devising strategies to increase revenue within monetization limits could compromise trust. This is where the paradox lies: media legitimacy is obtained through trust, but it does not guarantee economic gains amid an increasingly platformized media ecosystem. Conclusion: This study introduces the concept of the “paradox of trust” to explain how trust can simultaneously serve as a source of legitimacy and a constraint on the monetization of local media. Implications: The findings of this study expand the research landscape on trust, showing that the sustainability of local media is also linked to the discourse on which values should be upheld and which changes are considered legitimate. Thus, it is not solely related to business and technology.

Abstract

This study is a quasi-experimental evaluative research on applying the tagline "Bukan Sekadar Paham", which is the motto of the digital literacy program of Masyarakat Anti Fitnah Indonesia. The main concerns behind this research are: the absence of a quantitative analysis that conducts an empirical investigation of applying the "Bukan Sekadar Paham" discourse in various programs run. Specifically, this article discusses students' responses in 4 high schools in Surabaya who participated in a digital literacy program entitled Fikom Mengajar. This digital literacy program was held in collaboration between MAFINDO, the MAFINDO Commissariat of Widya Mandala Catholic University Surabaya (UKWMS), and the Student Executive Board, Faculty of Communication Sciences UKWMS. The research was conducted using the theoretical framework of attitude change using the ABC three-dimensional indicators that measure affect, behavior, and cognition. The method used was a survey method, with an electronic questionnaire data collection method on a google form. The results of this study show an increase in the ability to fact-check images, news texts, and posts on social media among high school students in Surabaya. Thus, quantitatively, applying the motto "Bukan Sekadar Paham" is concluded to have been successfully used in the Fikom Mengajar program.

Abstract

Penelitian ini berangkat dari pengamatan bahwa logika media massa dan logika berbagi di media sosial, telah mengaburkan perbedaan antara profesional dan amatir. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengurai keterkaitan antara framing media dan berita berstandar viral dalam peristiwa kasus Ferdy Sambo di media online dengan engagement media sosial tertinggi. Penelitian ini menggunakan content tools Buzzsumo untuk menarik data dengan pencarian words trends “Ferdy Sambo” dan “Putri Candrawathi” dengan metode analisis framing Zhondang Pan dan Gerald M. Kosicki. Hasil penelitian menunjukan dua bingkai utama. Pertama, pembunuhan Brigadir J sebagai bentuk menjaga kehormatan keluarga oleh Ferdy Sambo. Kedua, Putri Candrawathi meskipun berstatus sebagai tersangka, cenderung ditampilkan media sebagai tokoh protagonis yang menjadi korban kekerasan seksual. Sementara itu, berdasarkan identifikasi elemen berita viral, ditemukan elemen elite people, negative, conflict/violence dan shocking mendominasi kedua words trens. Adapun elemen sexuality mendominasi dalam words trends ‘Putri Candrawathi’. Hasil penelitian juga menunjukan unsur sensasi untuk menciptakan rasa emosional pembaca, dominan dalam bingkai teks media. Kesimpulannya, obsesi media terhadap viralitas membuat penggunaan diksi atau frasa cenderung digunakan untuk memanipulasi emosi pembaca. Akibatnya, narasi media cenderung abai untuk menyampaikan informasi yang utuh dan komperhensif.
