Abstract

This research analyzes how the Kompas Daily frames the Prabowo-Gibran administration in its special edition marking their one year in office. Data was collected from six main news articles in the Politics & Law and Economy & Business sections of this special edition. Using Zhongdang Pan and Gerald M. Kosicki's framing theory, the study examines how the news structure is constructed through four analytical devices: syntax, script, thematic, and rhetoric. The research results indicate that Kompas frames the Prabowo–Gibran administration in a critical-moderate manner, with the main focus on issues of elite consolidation, policy centralization, the paradox of economic etatism, and weak legal reform. Syntactically, the news highlights academic and bureaucratic official sources; thematically, it focuses on the dominance of central power; rhetorically, it uses specific metaphors and diction to strengthen the editorial position. In its presentation, the research findings show that Kompas serves as reflective journalism that seeks to maintain a balance between appreciating political stability and criticizing the symptoms of power centralization.

Abstract

This study examines how Tempo Magazine constructs political reality through media framing in its Indonesia 2026 Special Edition. The purpose is to analyze Tempo's interpretation of political power, democratic conditions, and state-society relations during Indonesia's critical phase of political consolidation in early 2026. It positions journalism as an active producer of political meaning rather than a neutral reflection of events. The research employs qualitative framing analysis based on Pan and Kosicki's model, focusing on four textual dimensions: syntactic, script, thematic, and rhetorical structures. Data comprise six purposively selected political articles from the edition's Political Rubric, analyzed through systematic textual reading to identify dominant frames and narrative patterns. Findings reveal Tempo frames early 2026 Indonesia as a landscape of democratic tension, centralized power, and shrinking public criticism space. Evaluative headlines, causal scripting, thematic coherence, and charged rhetoric construct a narrative emphasizing democratic vulnerability and political accountability. This interpretive journalism positions Tempo as a critical watchdog, demonstrating the role of framing in shaping public perceptions of power during political transitions.
