Abstract

Owing to its dual correlation with homosexuality and eroticism, danmei (Boys Love) in China is subject to state censorship, so in a hit online serial The Untamed adapted from a popular danmei novel, the male-male relationship between protagonists has been expurgated. Obsessed with the romance in the original narrative yet dissatisfied with the officially sanctioned adaptation, fangirls create fanfiction, including real person slash (RPS) based on the leading actor Xiao Zhan and his co-star from the The Untamed. Xiao’s fans reported a piece of RPS titled Xiazhui and Archaic of Our Own (AO3) that hosted it, causing AO3 to be blocked in China on 29th February 2020. Since Xiazhui features real celebrities, it concerns moral debates. Furthermore, Xiazhui pertains to Xiao’s fanbase whose acts are interconnected with toxic fandom and the so-called ‘heresy-style star worship’. More significantly, the contentious aspect of Xiazhui also lies in its homoerotic depictions that are regarded as indecent in a contemporary Chinese context. To cite this article (7th APA style): Wang, A.

Abstract

This article examines the communication strategy of the Central Jakarta Metro Police (Polres Jakpus) in campaigning anti-hoax to make Central Jakarta clean from hoaxes and create a sense of security in the community. This research was conducted in Jakarta for three months, from June to August 2018. Using a qualitative case study approach, primary data is collected by conducting interviews and observations, and secondary data is collected through document searches from books, journals, and other internet media sources. The results showed that the communication strategy carried out by the Polres Jakpus in an anti-hoax campaign put forward the preventive action conducted by the Sat Binmas through Bhabinkamtibmas. This was marked by appeals and socialization by Bhabinkamtibmas through posters, leaflets, banners, and door-to-door appeals from people's homes. Polres Jakpus Public Relations also carried out the campaign activity through exciting content on social media, campaigning not readily to trust and spreading the news that is not necessarily true. The activity also included socializing about criminal law for a hoax spreader. To cite this article (7th APA style): Tarmiji, M. (2023). Police communication strategy in combating hoaxes.

Abstract

Amid the development of an increasingly complex and dynamic media and communication ecosystem, press release communication also faces significant challenges. This article shows three aspects and parameters of worthiness in creating and distributing press release communications for maximum impact. First, Newsworthy --how worthy the information is to be reported, includes proximity, recency, humanity, exclusivity, and shareability. Secondly, Storyworthy is how appropriate the information and events presented in the media release are to be told and made viral. It includes theming, plotting, messaging, characterizing, and dramatizing. Lastly, Brandworthy --how worthy a press release is as a branding strategy. Hence, the press release should be distinguishable, soundable, representable, talkable, and marketable. This article is helpful for public relations and corporate communications practitioners and an essential reference for researchers to study the suitability of content, the impact, and the effectiveness of press release communications. How to cite this article (7th APA Style):Wijaya, B.

Abstract

The communications revolution, marked by developments in information technology, changes in the media ecosystem and audience habits, and an increasingly open communications culture and climate, is forcing public relations (PR) and corporate communications professionals to change their mindsets and work patterns. Public relations leadership requires a rereading of the meaning of 'public.' How companies and organizations run also requires adjustments to new paradigms, which has consequences for how PR leadership adapts. This article examines changes in professional organizations and public relations strategies. Some of them include a paradigm shift from corporate brand image to corporate brand engagement, from corporate identity to corporate behavior, superiority to equality, snobbery to humbleness, from regular to adaptive and creative PR, from insensitive to empathetic PR, from objective to subjective PR, from mechanistic/normative to humanistic PR, and from digital to digital-humanistic PR. How to cite this article:Wijaya, B.

Abstract

In an era of increasingly horizontal, equal, and communal communication, new models are needed to develop corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs that are more effective and relevant. Indonesia has a rich culture that can contribute to the development of new models of corporate communication, one of which is Gotong Royong communication. This article elaborates on horizontal models of CSR and their relationship to the culture of Gotong Royong in Indonesia. Horizontal CSR carries 3Cs: Community, Collaboration, and Cooperation. This study inspires companies and professional organizations to explore new forms of CSR programs based on social capital, social relations, and local wisdom that are equal and less selfish. To cite this article:Wijaya, B.

Abstract

Typically, film companies produce films that are ready for distribution to cinemas. Film work is the result of collective work. Starting from the involvement of producers, directors, screenwriters, cameramen, and editors, to artistic stylists (production team) through pre-production, production, and post-production processes. Although it is not uncommon to find that film works are not single and sterile works of replication or imitation, which refer to patterns and systems - including film production management and its entities - that have been previously established as a cultural industry. For this reason, the author uses the concept of Meme initiated by Richard Dawkins and synthesized with Pierre Bourdieu's sociological concept, namely: (Habitus x Capital) + Domain = Practice, as well as the cultural industry. The cause of film workers imitating previous works is the rationale for researching the film industry, especially in Indonesia. This research aims to prove that the phenomenon of memetics and habitus seneas occurs in the film industry in various countries, both developed and developing countries. To achieve this goal, the method applied in this research is the descriptive qualitative method. Data is obtained from documentation in the form of film works, especially the film Gundala, which involves the production team. The results of the analysis show that there are memetics and habitus of filmmakers in the film industry. This can be found in a number of production houses that carry out the practice, including Jagad BumiLangit, Falcon Pictures, and Screenplay. Almost every film work is imitative. The implications of this imitation can also be found in several cases of imitation of film works; in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, India, Japan, Europe, and America. To cite this article (7th APA style): Hadibroto, J.

Abstract

The Indonesian government, through a joint decision of the Minister of Home Affairs, the Minister of Law and Human Rights, the Minister of Communication and Information, the Attorney General of the Republic of Indonesia, the Chief of the Indonesian National Police, and the Head of the National Counter-Terrorism Agency have designated the mass organization the Front Pembela Islam (FPI) as a prohibited organization. This decision has given rise to polemics and various discourse debates. The pros and cons of more robust public discourse are related to the problem of the idea of ​​democracy. Some of the narratives agree because FPI has been considered a threat to democracy. Some other articulations refuse because this decision violates the principles of democracy itself. Through the perspective of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe's Critical Discourse analysis, this paper attempts to examine the polemic of the discourse on the disbandment of the FPI and the renegotiation of the idea of ​​democracy. Several essential notes were found: First, the plurality of responses to the discourse on the disbandment of the FPI was caused by the various articulation formations concerning the preference for the meaning of democracy. Second, democracy is an empty sign whose meaning will always be constantly negotiated. Third, the disbandment of FPI can be read as a concrete form of the ambivalence of democracy, which, in principle, is always fluid to be articulated by any narrative configuration. To cite this article (7th APA style): Nuryana, A. & Narwaya, S.

Abstract

In this article I illustrate the evolvement of the marginalised danmei (the Chinese equivalent of Japanese Boys Love) into a fandom-like subculture in contemporary China. I investigate danmei writers and their fanbases by analysing works and rankings on the leading female-oriented literature website Jinjiang and discussions on social media platforms represented by Weibo. Danmei writers are frequently correlated with (accused) overhyping and smear campaigns, and their fans contribute financially and in a form of maneuvring public discourse on social media, which is attributed to fangirls’ psychological and social pressure, as well as the prevailing capitalism and consumerism. Therefore, I argue that such a fandom-like phenomenon is only a ‘popularity bubble’, which by no means indicates an embracement of danmei as a literary genre and subculture or homosexuality as minority sexual orientation in China. Worse still, since some danmei fans demonstrate toxic fan practices such as cyber manhunt and online harassment and abuse, this ‘popularity bubble’ impinges upon danmei in a detrimental manner by imperilling its reputation and hindering its (fan) creation. To cite this article (7th APA style): Wang, A.
