Plate, who is also a cadre of the Nasdem Party, has caused a lot of debate among netizens. Online news portals with different party owners are also said to have an impact on the framing of reality and influencing readers' perspectives in viewing the BTS corruption issue. Therefore, it is necessary to further examine how the online media Mediaindonesia.com and Okezone.com framed the corruption case involving Johny G.
