Abstract

Implementation of the Presumption of Innocence by journalists has implications for the occurrence of trial by the press and potentially impacts social disharmony. This study aims to explain the interpretation of the presumption of innocence in journalism, and the understanding and application of the presumption of innocence by online media journalists. This research uses qualitative methods by utilizing two data collection techniques. Firstly, documentation that collects some related research about the Journalistic Codes of Ethics of the Press Council, PWI and AJI. Secondly, in-depth interviews with four online media journalists. The result shows that the literal interpretation of the presumption of innocence is a principle not to judge someone even though it is side by side with the principle of objectivity, covering both sides, mention of identity, and legal grammar. Online media journalists have a collective understanding of the presumption of innocence. However, the journalists have an authentic understanding that causes the different implementation of the presumption of innocence. Moreover, demands for faster news production, media agency policies, and personal interest from journalists also impact partial implementation. This research contributes by forming a model for applying the presumption of innocence for online media journalists to avoid trial by the press.

Abstract

This study examines the strengthening of presidential authority and investigates the polemics surrounding the dissolution of ministries in Indonesia, with a focus on the provisions of Law Number 39 of 2008. Employing a normative qualitative approach, the research draws on data collected through documentation, literature reviews, and interviews with officials, ministry representatives, and state studies activists in South Sulawesi and West Sulawesi. The findings highlight the critical importance of constructive collaboration and communication between the president, as the head of the executive, and parliament, as the legislature, to achieve consensus on cabinet formation. Effective dialogue fosters the creation of a cabinet composition that ensures both functionality and sufficient political support. However, the research identifies significant challenges, including a lack of transparency and limited public participation in legislative processes, as well as insufficient inter-agency collaboration in the drafting and enactment of laws. The study’s novelty lies in its exploration of the interplay between executive authority and legislative oversight in cabinet formation within Indonesia’s presidential system. By shedding light on the implications of these dynamics, the research contributes to the discourse on governance reform and emphasizes the need for enhanced institutional synergy to promote accountability and public trust.
