Abstract

The term Kids Jaman Now (Children Today) appears on various social media sites through content that represents the activities of young people in the current era. There are more than 1.6 million pieces of content on Instagram and more than 270 thousand pieces of content on YouTube which use the hashtag Kids Jaman Now . Through these contents, young people are perceived as a narcissistic, individualistic generation with a setback in moral values. This study uses reception analysis by conducting in depth interviews on a number of millennial generation informants who consume Kids Jaman Now contents to find out how they interpret the content. This study aims to show that young people who use social media are not consumers who receive messages passively; they have critical power towards the content they consume as digital natives who have better literacy than previous generations. The millennial generation has three different acceptances of this phenomenon. The first considers the content of Kids Jaman Now to represent a narcissistic, individualistic, and deteriorating moral values generation. The second considers Kids Jaman Now content as creativity for young people who entertain others and master digital communication technology.

Abstract

Many scholars have conducted studies on the accuracy of the news media, such as newspaper, television, and magazine, but not online media. In fact, online media is a significant news media in the moment, especially in Indonesia. Online press companies are even the largest press companies in Indonesia compared to newspapers, radio, and television. Therefore, this study is conducted to measure the inaccuracies that occur in news in online news media. Researchers examined 63 online journalistic media that have been administratively and factually verified by the Dewan Pers (Press Council). It uses a content analysis method by coding the headlines in Indonesian online journalistic media. This study finds online mass media categories based on the theme segmentation, namely: 1) general, 2) economics, technology, and business, 3) sports, 4) politics, law, and crime, 5) lifestyle and entertainment, and 6) regional. The results of this study indicate that the inaccuracy of news in Indonesian online media is high. Media with economics, technology, and business most often make grammatical errors. This study also finds that speed does not only has an impact on grammatical inaccuracies, but also on unbalanced news reporting, where the imbalance in Indonesian online media news itself is very high.
