Abstract

This study explored the significant impact of disinformation spread through social media, focusing on the documentary "The Social Dilemma" by Jeff Orlowski. The film provided a critical lens to examine how social media algorithms amplified false narratives. Using a qualitative content analysis approach, the research highlighted key themes related to disinformation, such as political polarization in the U.S., the flat earth theory, the #Pizzagate conspiracy, Covid-19 misinformation, and the incitement of hate speech in Myanmar. The findings revealed that algorithms designed to maximize user engagement often prioritized sensational and misleading content, exacerbating the spread of false information. This fueled social tensions and undermined public health and democratic processes. The study emphasized the urgent need for increased public awareness of disinformation's effects and called on social media platforms to take responsibility for reducing its spread.

Abstract

This paper is written as input for managers of higher education in Communication Studies in regards to the phenomenon of new digital communication technology development, as well as communication theory and research in Indonesia. While many communication scientists outside Indonesia have been talking about the importance of unifying the realms of mass and interpersonal communication theories in the era of digital technology, the teaching of communication theory in Indonesia has not accommodated such convergence. This has resulted in the absence of new/digital communication technologies in the existing communication research. Using the historical perspectives and previous works of communication scientists, a new perspective in the teaching of communication theory can be formulated, one that unifies the boundaries between mass and interpersonal communication. In addition, communication research that considers the presence of new communication technologies should also be pursued.
