Abstract

Agenda-building is concerned with negotiating interests in social systems and forces structured and carried out by a group of people. This study explores the agenda-building of the academics to intervene in the Job Creation Act (UUCK) policies that are delivered through YouTube. UUCK is an omnibus law, regulations made based on the compilation of rules with different substances and levels. UUCK in Indonesia was passed on October 5, 2020, with the main aim of simplifying regulations to improve the investment climate in Indonesia. However, the law has been opposed by many groups of people, starting from workers, students, academics, NGOs, and environmental activists, because the law is considered to be not pro-people. This study analysed dialogue texts about UUCK using agenda-building theory in 12 dialogue videos with a total duration of 25 hours and 40 minutes on YouTube uploaded in 2020. This research shows that YouTube facilitates public voices represented by academics amid positive narratives about UUCK that are spread in the mass media and the internet. The study has found four significant narratives within the pros and cons discussions of UUCK on YouTube that were built by academics. These four significant narratives are employment issues, regulatory issues, investment, economy and business and environmental issues. The UUCK sentiment was dominated by the rejection of UUCK, as mentioned above. The findings of this study indicate a firm rejection of UUCK, with scientific arguments from academics showing that the government has not built a transparent discussion regarding UUCK. This study recommends a more transparent, open and argumentative discussion from all UUCK stakeholders to minimise community friction.

Abstract

This study delves into the challenges confronted by women working in the media sector in Pakistan, specifically focusing on journalists, producers, and editors. The primary objective is to identify and analyze the various obstacles hindering the professional advancement and well-being of women in this industry. Phenomenology method was used to collect the data. Thematic analysis was employed to identify common themes and patterns across the participants' experiences and perceptions. The findings reveal a multitude of challenges faced by women in the media industry, including workplace stress, technical difficulties, tight deadlines, gender discrimination, biased promotion practices, unequal pay, harassment, limited training opportunities, and closed circles obstructing career progression. Gender inequalities are pervasive, with women being underrepresented in top management positions and facing lower compensation compared to their male counterparts. Additionally, female journalists struggle to balance work and personal life responsibilities amidst societal expectations.  To address these challenges, the study recommends the implementation of policies and regulatory frameworks to protect women journalists, the establishment of training programs for professional development, the creation of mentorship opportunities, and the promotion of inclusivity and diversity within media organizations. Collaborative efforts between governments, media outlets, and society are essential to ensure the safety, well-being, and advancement of women in the media sector.

Abstract

Tempo magazine's covers depicting the political battle between Jokowi and Prabowo in the context of the 2019 Presidential Election are worth examining. Not only because in 2019, Jokowi and Prabowo met as rivals who defeated each other for the second time after the 2014 Presidential Election. Using semiotic analysis and media agenda setting theory, this study aims to identify the connotational aspects of the figures of Jokowi and Prabowo in the context of the 2019 Presidential Election on various covers of Tempo magazine. This research highlights the importance of the agenda setting process carried out by the Tempo Magazine Editor in determining the cover of Tempo Magazine in the context of the 2019 presidential election in Indonesia. This study finds that Tempo Magazine’s covers show no bias toward any presidential candidate, positioning Tempo as a neutral observer of the candidates' political behavior. The covers depict a balance of power leading to societal polarization and support divisions. Moreover, the agenda media discourse shows, instead of building opposition, it suggests a political coalition, reflecting the political communication character of Jokowi administration.

Abstract

Reporting on poverty has always been a compelling topic for the mass media. Beyond its news value, such reporting reflects the media’s ideal role as an institution that exercises social control over those responsible for tackling poverty, particularly the government and the state. Kompas is one of Indonesia’s major mass media outlets, which, to this day, continues to demonstrate a commitment to highlighting the issue of poverty as part of its social control function. Using the netnography research method, this study examines two issues: the narratives of poverty presented by Kompas and the ideology underpinning them, as well as the audience’s response to such coverage. The subject of this study comprises Kompas’s posts on X (Twitter), Instagram and Facebook regarding the “Suara Tak Terdengar” (Unheard Voices) reporting programme throughout 2024. The findings indicate that Kompas has successfully raised the issue of poverty on social media, attracting the audience’s attention, although there are still limitations in engagement on certain issues. This article also demonstrates that the issue of poverty can still be addressed whilst upholding humanitarian principles and simultaneously serving as a tool for state control. These findings also distinguish this study from previous research, which suggested that coverage of poverty on social media tends to focus on individual cases and is prone to reinforcing negative stereotypes of the poor.
