The discovery of the adoption of electricity, computer technology, and the birth of digital languages contributed to the transformation of mass media that occurred in the era of digitalization.

The research examines the coevolution process, convergence, and complexity of the development of print media to online media on Radar Bandung. The method used in this research is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. The results showed that the Radar Bandung coevolution process had been approved and implemented digital language to obtain a new business diversification and two online media radarbandung.id and bandung.pojoksatu.com. The Radar Bandung convergence process produces two types of convergence, namely a form of technological convergence and journalistic convergence.
