Abstract

The advancement of digital technology has accelerated media convergence, integrating traditional and digital media into a unified and interconnected communication ecosystem. This phenomenon not only transforms the distribution of information but also reshapes how individuals think, interact, and construct their identities, particularly among Generation Z. This study aims to explore the meaning of media convergence from the perspective of Generation Z students at the State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UIN Sumatera Utara). Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with five informants selected via purposive sampling. The findings reveal that students perceive media convergence as a new normal embedded in their daily lives. Digital media are viewed not merely as tools but as integral spaces for learning, self-expression, and social interaction. Four major themes emerged: efficiency and accessibility of information, digital lifestyle transformation, creative and identity expression, and awareness of ethical digital challenges. The novelty of this study lies in its focus on the subjective experiences of students within a faith-based higher education setting. These findings enrich the discourse on digital literacy and offer strategic implications for educational institutions in cultivating a generation that is adaptive, critical, and ethically responsible in navigating the digital media landscape.

Abstract

This study addresses the issue of how journalistic ethics are implemented in print media reporting amid the dynamics of news production and demands for immediacy. The study aims to analyze the application of journalistic ethical principles in the editorial process and news texts of Harian Waspada, focusing on accuracy, balance of sources, independence, non-sensationalism, and social responsibility. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, with data collected through direct observation during an internship program in the editorial newsroom and qualitative analysis of selected news articles published by Harian Waspada. Data analysis was conducted using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, combined with qualitative content analysis. The findings indicate that Harian Waspada demonstrates a relatively consistent commitment to accuracy and social responsibility, while efforts to maintain source balance and editorial independence are generally evident. However, limitations in achieving ideal balance were identified in certain types of news, particularly brief reports and official statements, due to efficiency considerations and news characteristics. Overall, the study concludes that journalistic ethics at Harian Waspada are practiced in a contextual and adaptive manner within editorial routines, reflecting the media’s commitment to public interest and professional journalism standards.
