Methods: The method used was an analysis of the framing of the Entman model of some Kompas.com news that discussed dynastic political issues, focusing on content related to the President's family. Results: The results of the study show that Kompas.com framing dynastic politics as a significant issue in Indonesian democracy with a relatively balanced approach, presenting a critique of the potential for nepotism, but also presenting the argument that political decisions remain in the hands of the people.
