Abstract

This study explores the representation of Islam in political talk shows on two major Indonesian news television stations—tvOne and CNN Indonesia—during the lead-up to the 2024 Presidential Election. Using a qualitative approach and document analysis method, the research focuses on two episodes that exemplify how Islamic identity is framed: Catatan Demokrasi from tvOne and Political Show from CNN Indonesia. Guided by Halliday’s social semiotics and Hall’s theory of representation, the analysis investigates both audio-visual content and discursive structures to reveal underlying patterns of meaning. The findings show that Islam is often reduced to a socio-political identity marker attached to certain political figures rather than explored as a religious or philosophical system. Such framing, recurrently amplified by hosts and guests, leads to the oversimplification and banalization of Islamic identity in mainstream media. While political identity and religious symbolism appear repeatedly in these discussions, the programs lack theoretical clarity and depth regarding the concept of identity politics. The study contributes to media and communication studies by offering a critical reflection on the media’s role in shaping public perceptions of Islam. It also proposes a new way to conceptualize televised representation by emphasizing the ethical implications of religious commodification during electoral periods. The research calls for a more responsible media practice that upholds the integrity of religious identity and fosters inclusive political discourse.

Abstract

This paper investigates the responses of mainstream Islamic mass organizations in Indonesia, NU and Muhammadiyah, to the emergence of Salafi and Wahhabi teachings in the digital realm that challenge their religious authority. Using Bourdieu’s perspective, the restatement of the religious understanding of these two organizations on social media is an attempt to strengthen their established powers in Indonesia while positioning Salafi and Wahhabi groups as newcomers. At the same time, this makes social media a new field in the contestation of religious authority in Indonesia. This study was conducted both online and offline. Online studies were conducted by taking inventory of several websites and discourses that have developed on various internet and social media platforms, while an offline study was conducted through field studies in West Java, Yogyakarta, East Java, and Banten, to investigate the figures and institutions associated with each mass organization, both structurally and culturally. The results show that these organizations have adopted different strategies to address the issue, where NU has reacted defensively, whereas Muhammadiyah has prioritized internal development and charitable activities.

Abstract

This article will examine the practice of clickbait journalism, which is increasingly common in news titles in online media, through the lens of Altheide and Snow's media logic. Due to social distancing policies during the pandemic, this article employs the library research method by collecting materials and references online by observing several clickbait news titles on Tribunnews.com. Trends can be identified based on data analysis, such as exaggeration, graphics or titles containing obscene, disturbing/disgusting, or shady material, bait-and-switch, and ambiguous or confusing and tend to grab readers' interest. Nevertheless, although this practice has been criticized as a mere business, this article argues that this practice does not always represent the poor credibility of online media since this practice is not only caused by the technical logic of online media but also caused by the changing behavior of the readers which is more increasingly digitalized.
