Abstract

Digital media is currently the main key to public communication to convey aspirations in government policies. Medan is also one of the major cities in Indonesia that is striving to realize the concept of a smart city through digital media. The role of digital media is very important in realizing a smart city. This study aims to analyze how digital media plays a role in uniting the views of the community and the Medan city government in the effort to realize a smart city in Medan. The method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive approach with a library research approach and observation of digital communication activities, online news, and public statements from the government to the public in Medan. In realizing a smart city, optimizing digital communication is essential to strengthen the synergy between the community and the government. The results of the study indicate that digital media plays a crucial role as a means of two-way communication, information dissemination, and as a medium for public participation. However, challenges such as weak digital literacy and limited infrastructure are obstacles to the sustainability of this effort.

Abstract

Broadcast media encompassing television, radio, public broadcasting, and digital platforms plays a central and increasingly significant role within the sphere of contemporary societal life. The content presented, particularly in the form of advertising, entertainment, information, and public services, possesses the capability to transform the way individuals access knowledge, consume leisure, and utilize public facilities. This paper aims to elaborate upon and describe these four essential functions of broadcast media, analyze their implications, and delineate the interconnection and functional integration of media amidst the progress of the digital era. In the digital age, these four media functions no longer operate in isolation (siloism) but tend to integrate with one another through the mechanism of convergence within a single platform ecosystem, as evidenced by platforms such as YouTube or TikTok. This convergence facilitates simultaneous and streamlined access for the public to a diverse range of needs. Consequently, this integration necessitates the strengthening of digital literacy among the audience to enable critical content filtering and the mitigation of potential negative impacts. A comprehensive understanding of broadcast media functions constitutes an essential prerequisite for ensuring their optimal utilization for the public good and supporting national development.
