Media coverage of terrorism has tendency of bias because both media and terrorists take advantages in the relationship. Media benefit much from the news value of the striking acts of terror that spark fear and anger at the same time. The terrorists win free publication of their actions in achieving their goals. Therefore the credibility of the news media should be built upon the ethical journalism practice to eliminate the bias. This article proposed a theoretical and practical foundation for implementing ethical journalism in covering terrorism. Journalists should comply with a new principle of objectivity in reporting terrorism. As the society needs accurate information about events around them, news media should be able to provide ―first aid‖ package of information, so that members of the society can act rationally and be calm during the tense situation. Ethical journalism with a renewed standard of objectivity could keep the first aid of information constantly flowing to the society facing fear and danger of terrorism.

Elections have changed significantly since 2004 in Indonesia when citizens for the very first time voted directly for their national leaders. The changes seen not only at the significant participations, either in the electorates or in the political parties contesting the elections, but more so on the way campaigns were conducted. Political parties and individual candidates have run campaigns in a way that has a deep involvement of political marketing, scientific research, political consultants, and professionalization of strategies and the messages conveyed to the voters, to which often referred to as modernization of campaign. Professionalization of campaigning has given a new face of electoral politics in Indonesia, where crafting persuasive message to woo the public is much more important than the substantive and ideological policy preferences offered to the people. Individual popularity becomes a dominant factor for elites to compete for political positions through election. This calls for investigation, because what happens during campaigns will influence the rest of electoral process and the results accordingly. This paper is aimed at exploring the modernization of campaigns theory, observing its practices in Indonesia, and categorizing its thematic research opportunities in the context of Indonesian direct elections.

This article tries to unveil the transformative power of the new media platforms that reshape a new pattern of political communication in our democracy. Furthermore, the characteristics of new media have contributed significantly to the renaissance of an enabling public sphere. The structure of new media transforms the restricted and deep-rooted top-down pattern of political communication into one that is decentralized and bottom-up today. There are, at least, five forms of transformation in the pattern of political communication as the result of utilizing various features of the new media technology, namely e-government, political campaign, citizen’s aspirations channel, and decentralized political education. Some trends of the application in the context of general election’s micro-political communication (citizen-to-citizen) are discussed succinctly, such as Vote Cerdas BDG, Orang Baik, Bersih2014, Check Your Candidates, Mata Massa, Rumah Pemilu, and Jari Ungu.

Internet is the most important aspect of information and communication technologies (ICTs) today. It brings significant changes in many parts of the society, in politics, economy, and in culture. The unprecedented changes happening in those domains are possible, in part, due to the advent of wireless technology that has created a free access of information and makes time and distance irrelevant than before. With the combination of social media, wireless technology, and the internet, we can communicate and access information from and to anywhere, and at any time now despite some obstacles both technical and cultural. This article aims to highlight the system, application of wireless technology, and challenges of its use in Indonesia, especially with the perennial issue of digital divide cause by either technical and cultural factors. The gap is not only on the dimension of physical access, but also on other dimensions which are commonly ignored namely motivation to use, skill access, and usage access.

Social media has changed the way politicians communicate and interact with citizens, but research on Indonesian political use of social media in a non-electoral context is still limited. This study aims to fill the gap by examining how members of Indonesia’s legislature (DPR) of the 2014-2019 period adopted and used Twitter (now X) to enhance their online presence, branding, and popularity during non-electoral context. By using political branding theory and the equalization-normalization debate, the study seeks to answer three questions: (1) who among DPR members adopted Twitter, (2) how they used its features for branding and communication, and (3) what factors explain their online popularity. Based on a dataset of 436 Twitter-registered politicians (78% of total 560 DPR members) supplemented by social network analysis, this study finds that online legislators are predominantly male (82%), middle-aged (mean = 51, SD = 9), and university educated. Branding is mostly limited to displaying a profile picture, with small percentage of showing position and party affiliation. Popularity is highly skewed. Education and party size are strong predictors of adoption, and frequency of twitting is an indication of popularity. While large parties like PDIP and Golkar have the most members online, smaller parties such as PKS and NasDem outperform them in proportional Twitter presence. The study gives a contribution to digital political communication scholarship by establishing a baseline of Twitter adoption among legislators in emerging democracy before the current era of online disinformation.
