Abstract

This study aims to compare the syntactic structures of Pan & Kosicki's framing in reporting on the fake Joko Widodo 2025 diploma issue on Kompas.com and Tribunnews.com. The research was conducted online from April to May 2025 through access to both media sites. The study population was all news articles related to the fake Joko Widodo 2025 diploma issue, with a sample of eight articles (four articles per media) purposively selected based on the following criteria: thematic relevance, balance in quantity, and publication timeframe. The research instrument was a framing analysis sheet based on the Pan & Kosicki model, which focuses on five elements of syntactic structure: headline, lead, background information, source quotations, and conclusion. The data analysis technique was carried out by adapting the Pan & Kosicki framing model with the following steps: reading techniques, note-taking techniques, identification of syntactic elements, categorization and interpretation, and comparative analysis between Kompas.com and Tribunnews.com. The results of the study show that Kompas.com tends to build legal-formal and pro-legitimacy framing with the following characteristics: informative-procedural titles (the word "make sure"), leads sourced from institutional authority, systematic and legal process-oriented background information, dominance of quotes from officials and Jokowi's attorneys, and a closing that emphasizes the legal process. In contrast, Tribunnews.com tends to build conflictual and semi-neutral framing with the following characteristics: dramatic-sensational titles (the phrase "ternyata"), leads that vary and do not fully represent the content, background information that expands the conflict, providing space for the reported party (Roy Suryo, Eggi Sudjana), and a hanging and multi-interpretable closing.
