Abstract

In the digital era, a number of media use YouTube to distribute their content in order to gain new profit opportunities from social media. This research aims to determine the commodification of workers on YouTube and determine its impact on the quality of news. The research uses qualitative methods with a case study approach and data collection using documentation and literature studies. The results of this research found that the heavy work carried out by media workers and the minimal wages of media workers because they are not equivalent to a journalist's living wage mean that the practice of commodification is still ongoing. YouTube is one of the media's efforts to maintain its existence, so that the creativity of content creators becomes evidence of the commodification of workers which provides profits for the media. Regarding the quality of news, this research found that content creators generally only pursue what is common to public consumption, so the news that is broadcast is generally only done to meet normative quality standards

Abstract

The choice of diction in news headlines is a construction to produce meaning that can influence audiences. A news headline can influence our cognition to produce behavioral changes. Audiences gain influence as a result of the concept of hypodermic or needle theory as an effect of mass communication. This theory assumes that audiences are unable to resist the messages and influences carried out by the media in a news story.  The purpose of this research is to find out the extent to which the construction of a headline on the news can influence readers' opinions. So that readers are directly affected by the news message. The method used in this research is a descriptive qualitative approach from various literature reviews using the constructivism paradigm. The theory used to identify problems is the hypodermic theory. The result of this research is that audiences are actively or passively influenced by the message of the title given by a news story in the media.
