Abstract

This study aims to analyze information verification processes in traffic reporting produced through citizen journalism practices. The increasing reliance of the public on fast and real-time information highlights the need for proper verification mechanisms to ensure that disseminated information remains accurate, balanced, and ethically responsible. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach using content observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation techniques. The analytical framework is based on journalistic verification principles that emphasize accuracy, completeness of information, ethical considerations, and public responsibility. The findings indicate that information verification is conducted through several stages, including checking the completeness of basic data, assessing the relevance and timeliness of events, and applying ethical judgment prior to publication. Information that does not meet verification standards tends to be excluded, even when it originates from public contributions. These results suggest that citizen journalism has strong potential as a credible source of public information when supported by consistent and responsible verification practices. This study contributes to communication studies by strengthening the understanding of verification mechanisms within citizen journalism, particularly in the context of traffic reporting.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the persuasive communication strategies used by the Instagram account @Igitacy in promoting beauty products. The background of this research is based on the growing role of social media, particularly Instagram, as a promotional medium for cosmetic products that relies on personal closeness and influencer credibility. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews with the account owner and audience, content observation, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, referring to Lasswell’s communication model. The results show that the account’s credibility is built through consistent posting, high-quality visuals, genuine product use, transparency of information, and intensive interaction with the audience. The message content is structured by introducing the product, explaining its benefits and ingredients, and inviting the audience to try it, using a casual yet informative communication style. The main channels used are Reels and Stories, considered effective for reaching the audience and fostering interaction. The primary target audience is women with similar skin concerns, although the content is designed to remain relevant to a diverse audience. The effects of persuasive communication are reflected in increased interaction, follower growth, and audience trust in the product recommendations provided. This study concludes that the success of @Igitacy’s persuasive communication is influenced by the combination of credibility, structured message design, appropriate channel selection, and the ability to understand the audience. These findings may serve as a reference for marketers and influencers in designing effective promotional strategies on social media.

Abstract

The communication strategy of the Village Consultative Body (BPD) plays an important role in encouraging community participation in village development processes. Ineffective communication planning may lead to low levels of community involvement in development programs implemented by the village government. This study aims to analyze the communication strategy of the Village Consultative Body (BPD) in increasing community participation in the development of Gembung Raya Village, Napal Putih District, North Bengkulu Regency. This research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, field observations, and documentation. The research informants consisted of the head of BPD, community leaders, the head of the youth organization, and members of the community in Gembung Raya Village who were selected using purposive sampling techniques. Data analysis was conducted through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing and verification. The results of the study indicate that the communication strategy implemented by BPD in increasing community participation has not been optimal. In the stage of identifying the audience, the understanding of community characteristics and needs has not been comprehensive because village deliberations tend to involve only certain groups. In the stage of message formulation, development information is delivered through deliberation meetings using relatively simple language; however, it has not fully reached all community members. In the stage of determining the communication method, communication is mainly conducted through village meetings and direct interactions, yet community participation remains relatively low. In addition, the use of communication media is still limited to traditional methods such as invitation letters and face-to-face communication without utilizing broader communication media. Therefore, BPD is expected to evaluate and improve its communication strategies by developing more inclusive, transparent, and participatory communication and by utilizing more diverse communication media in order to enhance community participation in sustainable village development.
