Abstract

This study analyzes the framing transformation carried out by Denny Siregar as a political influencer on Indonesian social media during the period of 2014–2024. Using a qualitative approach with a constructivist paradigm and Robert Entman's framing analysis model, this research explores how Denny Siregar went through three significant transformation phases: the Ahok supporter phase (2014–2017), the Jokowi supporter phase (2014–2022), and the Jokowi critic phase (2022–2024). Data were collected through social media content analysis on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube, as well as secondary document analysis. The findings show that the framing transformation was influenced by political, economic, social media technology factors, and audience dynamics. In the Ahok supporter phase, the framing focused on bureaucratic reform and anti-corruption narratives using good personification strategies and moral polarization. The Jokowi supporter phase featured narratives of infrastructure development and counter-framing against opposition using selective data. The Jokowi critic phase employed betrayal narratives and historical reframing with value consistency positioning. This transformation impacted follower composition changes of up to 30% and a decline in engagement of up to 40%, while increasing discussion polarization. This research contributes to the development of framing theory by adding temporal and dynamic dimensions in social media contexts and offers practical insights into digital political communication strategies and their implications for Indonesian democracy.

Abstract

The candidates for Governor and Deputy Governor of DKI Jakarta 2024, Ridwan Kamil and Suswono (RIDO), utilized the Shannon-Weaver communication model. The controversy began with Suswono's statement suggesting that "wealthy widows marry unemployed young men," followed by a similar remark from Ridwan Kamil. This study explores how the use of sensitive language can influence public perception and the electability of political candidates. Using the Shannon-Weaver model, the study identifies five stages of communication: information source, encoding process, channel and noise, receiver, and destination. The analysis results reveal that semantic noise and socio-cultural contexts sensitive to gender issues significantly contributed to negative perceptions among the public. Criticism from various organizations and public figures amplified this negative impact, which was reflected in the decline of RIDO's electability, ultimately leading to their defeat in the 2024 Jakarta election. This study highlights the importance of careful word choice in political communication and how semantic noise can affect message effectiveness. The Shannon-Weaver model, although initially designed for technical communication, can be adapted to analyze the complexities of contemporary political communication, particularly regarding the use of language with sensitive gender and social dimensions.

Abstract

Algorithmic journalism has transformed the Indonesian digital media landscape, creating a paradox between the democratization of information and the restriction of freedom. This study analyzes the phenomenon through the lens of Michel Foucault's theory of power, using a qualitative research method with a critical constructionism paradigm. The study of platforms such as Detik.com, TikTok, and Facebook reveals that algorithms operate as a “digital panopticon,” monitoring and disciplining user behavior through biopower technology. Filter bubbles and algorithmic bias create a “regime of truth” that shapes digital subjectivity and controls the distribution of information. However, Foucault's concept of parrhesia offers strategies of resistance through digital literacy and self-management practices. This research contributes to understanding algorithms not as neutral technical instruments but as power mechanisms that shape digital social reality. The practical implications include developing algorithmic transparency regulations and strengthening public participation in technology oversight.

Abstract

This research analyzes the Toraja-Makassar ethnic conflict triggered by hate speech on social media and proposes a conflict prevention model based on the Early Warning System (EWS). Using Communication Accommodation Theory, research identifies forms of divergence in hate speech that widen social and cultural distances between ethnic groups. As a solution, the PRISMA EWS (Proactive Real-time Integrated Social Media Analysis Early Warning System) model is proposed which consists of four layers: monitoring-detection-analysis-response, analysis & assessment, warning system, and core system. This model is designed to detect early signs of conflict through social media analysis using machine learning, taking into account the local cultural context and involving various stakeholders. The research methodology used is qualitative with a comprehensive literature study approach to analyze the Toraja-Makassar ethnic conflict and develop a social media-based Early Warning System (EWS) model. The research results show that the PRISMA EWS model has the potential to be effective in preventing ethnic conflict on social media, although its implementation requires technological infrastructure support and intensive multi-stakeholder cooperation..

Abstract

The dominance of global digital platforms such as Google, Meta, and TikTok has triggered an economic crisis within Indonesia’s mainstream television industry, as evidenced by a significant decline in advertising revenue and increased audience fragmentation. This study critically examines the Indonesian Press Council’s proposal on Publishing Rights as a response to the economic imbalance between traditional media and digital platforms. By employing theoretical frameworks from Political Economy of Communication, Platform Capitalism, and Media Regulation, the research evaluates the mechanisms and implementation potential of Publishing Rights in the Indonesian context and draws comparisons with international practices in Australia, France, Canada, and South Korea. A qualitative approach is applied through policy analysis and comparative studies, supported by data obtained from policy documents, industry reports, and in-depth interviews. The findings indicate that Publishing Rights hold promise as an effective policy instrument to rebalance the digital media ecosystem, strengthen the resilience of quality journalism, and enhance the bargaining power of national media against global tech giants. Nevertheless, substantial implementation challenges remain, particularly resistance from digital conglomerates and the need for regulatory harmonization. The study recommends strengthening the legal framework through dedicated legislation, establishing a Digital Media Resilience Authority, and adopting a revenue-sharing model based on content production contribution. In conclusion, Publishing Rights have the potential to serve as a strategic pillar for the economic recovery of the television media industry, provided they are supported by an inclusive policy design and rigorous oversight.

Abstract

This study examines the narratives constructed by mass media regarding accusations of Wahabism and anti-Pancasila associated with the Prosperous Justice Party (PKS) in Indonesia. Utilizing a critical paradigm, the research analyzes the impact of media coverage on public opinion and the ideological implications for PKS. Through qualitative methods—including in-depth interviews with four key informants (PKS Secretary General H. Muhammad Kholid, Head of PKS DPP Organization Bureau Sunarto, media observer Andre Bachtiar, and political researcher Revan Fauzano from Constra Indonesia) and critical discourse analysis of online media content from 2019–2024—this study reveals systematic patterns in media discourse that contribute to the stigmatization of PKS. The findings highlight the role of disinformation in shaping political narratives and uncover a disconnect between media representations and PKS's actual ideology, which upholds Pancasila as its foundational principle. The results emphasize the need for improved journalistic practices and media literacy to counteract sensationalism and misinformation in political communication. This study contributes to political communication literature by providing empirical validation of Aeron Davis's theory on structural crisis in digital-age political communication, demonstrating how media political economy, attention economy, and mediatization processes interact to produce systematic disinformation campaigns against political actors. Recommendations include structural media industry reforms addressing business model crises, regulatory frameworks emphasizing transparency and accountability rather than censorship, multi-stakeholder dialogue forums, and comprehensive public media literacy programs integrated with community institutions.
