Abstract

This study analyzes the dynamics of the communication network between the Islamic Communication and Broadcasting Study Program (KPI) of the Faculty of Da'wah and Communication Sciences, UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta, and broadcasting media institutions, and identifies the obstacles faced in dealing with the creative industry. This study uses a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques include in-depth interviews and documentation. Data were analyzed using Rogers & Kincaid's communication network theory. The results of the study show that the communication network between the KPI Study Program and the broadcasting industry is still hierarchical, with a chain communication pattern that limits the flow of information and direct access of students to the industry. The main obstacles found include minimal opportunities for field practice, limited internship quotas, and a lack of industry involvement in developing a curriculum based on market needs. In addition, the formal cooperation that has been established between the Islamic Communication and Broadcasting Study Program and the broadcasting industry is still not optimal in creating a flexible and responsive communication system to the development of digital technology. This study recommends strengthening the academic-industry communication strategy through the development of more open communication patterns, such as star communication patterns, in order to increase direct interaction between students, lecturers, and the broadcasting industry. This effort is expected to strengthen the role of the KPI Study Program in producing graduates who are adaptive, innovative, and ready to compete in the creative and broadcasting industries.

Abstract

The escalating Israel-Palestine conflict has triggered a wave of global consumer activism, one of which is a boycott campaign targeting multinational brands such as Starbucks. This phenomenon highlights the strong connection between political identity, moral expression, and consumer behavior. This study aims to explore how individuals receive, interpret, and respond to boycott messages against Starbucks within the context of the conflict. Employing a qualitative descriptive phenomenological approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and digital archive analysis. Informants were purposively selected based on shared characteristics and the intensity of their engagement with the issue. The findings reveal diverse decoding positions, dominant, negotiated, and oppositional, shaped by cultural background, political orientation, personal experience, and brand loyalty. Social media shapes emotional narratives, reinforces symbolic resistance, and shifts perception and consumption behavior. These findings underscore the complexity of political consumerism and demonstrate the active role of consumers in redefining brand image amid socio-political crises. This study offers theoretical and practical contributions to understanding meaning-making dynamics in digital communication and emphasizes the urgency of audience-based approaches in brand communication strategies

Abstract

The high number of sexual violence cases against women in Indonesia remains alarming, with a recent surge in gender-based cyber violence that exploits victims through sexual content. This phenomenon prompted the author to investigate how the Instagram account @perempuanberkisah manages public narratives and responses from netizens toward stories shared by women victims of sextortion. The main objective of this research is to analyze the sentiment and discourse dynamics generated in the comment sections of this platform. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study design, the study selected three sextortion-related posts from @perempuanberkisah during 2023. Sentiment analysis was also conducted to categorize the direction of netizen comments into positive, negative, and neutral. The findings reveal that neutral sentiments dominate the discussions, surpassing positive and negative sentiments across all three posts. This suggests that while @perempuanberkisah serves as a platform for raising awareness and empowering victims, netizen engagement tends to remain cautious and reflective rather than explicitly supportive or oppositional. Theoretically, this study enriches feminist perspectives on digital activism and online narrative management. Practically, it highlights the importance of safe online spaces for survivors. Future research is encouraged to explore similar issues using additional theoretical frameworks and comparative platforms.

Abstract

Roadways are not merely functional spaces for vehicular movement but also complex arenas of social communication. In the city of Bandung, road users' diverse social and cultural backgrounds increase the potential for misinterpretations of nonverbal communication, often escalating into verbal and even physical conflicts. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing shifts in road users' perceptions, the mechanisms behind nonverbal communication failures, and the role of emotional control in mitigating traffic conflicts. This research uses a qualitative approach, participatory observation, and document analysis methods. Observations were conducted at several strategic locations in Bandung, such as the Dago, Setiabudi, and Buah Batu areas, to capture the nonverbal behaviors of road users authentically. The findings reveal that situational pressures, biases from past experiences, and emotional states of road users trigger perception shifts. Communication failures occur through misinterpretations of nonverbal symbols, weak emotional control, and conflict escalation. Emotional control is key to restraining aggressive responses and minimizing misunderstandings. This study concludes by emphasizing the importance of integrating emotional education into traffic safety campaigns. By strengthening emotional awareness and symbol comprehension, it is hoped that a safer, more harmonious, and humanistic traffic culture will be cultivated in Bandung.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between candidates’ branding politic and the political preferences (selera) of voter groups during the 2024 Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT) gubernatorial election. The research is grounded in the strong influence of local political culture in shaping political orientation, both among elites and the general public. The main objectives of this study are: (1) to identify the distingsi of political selera among the public based on their ideal leadership qualifications, and (2) to analyze the alignment between candidates’ branding politik and those political selera. This research employs a critical approach with a single-case study design. The findings reveal three categories of voter selera politik: Legitimate Taste (upper class), Middle-Brow Taste (middle class), and Popular Taste (lower class). The three gubernatorial candidate pairs presented distinct branding: Lema–Natalia portrayed a millennial-opposition figure; Lena–Asadoma emphasized political networks and accommodative communication; Kamlasi–Garu highlighted local Timorese identity. All candidates capitalized on symbolic capital to reach middle- and lower-class voters. The study concludes that political preference in NTT is not entirely shaped by rationality, but rather by culturally and symbolically embedded selera. This research underscores that the hegemony of local political culture remains highly dominant in the dynamics of political contestation and strategy in NTT

Abstract

Digital media is crucial in supporting accounting transparency and shaping a company's strategic image in the digital era. This article examines how a value-based communication approach can integrate the principles of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into corporate communication practices, particularly regarding accountability and reputation. By optimizing digital media, companies enhance the transparency of financial information and build public trust through narratives aligned with sustainability values. This study employs a descriptive qualitative approach with case study analysis on companies adopting value-based communication strategies. The findings show that the synergy between digital media and SDG values can improve public perception of corporate social responsibility and ethics. This also strengthens the company's strategic position in the eyes of stakeholders, creating a positive image and fostering long-term relationships with various parties involved. Through this integration, companies can achieve financial transparency and a strong reputation.

Abstract

The digital transformation has significantly impacted all media sectors, including local government-managed radio. Amid the rapid development of technology and the declining popularity of analog radio, Local Public Broadcasting Institutions (LPPL) are required to innovate to remain relevant and reach broader audiences. This study aims to analyze the media convergence strategies adopted by Radio Kandaga, an LPPL owned by the Bandung Regency Government, to sustain its presence through digital platforms. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study design conducted over two months (November–December 2024). Data collection techniques included direct observation, in-depth interviews with key informants, and document analysis. The findings indicate that Radio Kandaga implemented convergence strategies through web-based streaming, the use of social media, and the involvement of younger generations as digital content managers. These strategies began with audience behavior observation, followed by adaptive cross-platform programming, and concluded with user engagement-based evaluation. In conclusion, Radio Kandaga has successfully adopted a contextual and adaptive digital strategy that aligns with changing audience media consumption patterns while maintaining its local character as part of its public information service mission and efforts to strengthen transparent local governance.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the motives of the goals and causes of Crosshijaber Communication Behavior in the city of Bandung. This study uses a phenomenological method with a qualitative approach. The process of collecting data was obtained through in-depth interviews and observations of informants. The results showed that the motives that caused Crosshijaber's Communication Behavior were, among others, because of problems within themselves and their families, thus creating a sense of trauma to the perpetrators. They feel bored with their original appearance and make them do something new. Interest in hijab makes them want to try using it, while the motives for Crosshijaber Communication Behavior are, among others, feeling suitable when they use the hijab after they wear the hijab the Crosshijaber actors will get happiness, their goal of using the hijab is to want to be a better person, to satisfy their sense of belonging. I'm curious why women using hijab become more beautiful.

Abstract

As an event that grabs the public's attention, domestic violence (KDRT) is still making headlines in various mass media lines, including cyber media. This study aims to identify cases of domestic violence reported by the cyber media Hulondalo.Id and describe the categorization patterns made by the media to frame domestic violence events in Gorontalo. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with a framing analysis tool from Murray Edelman. The results showed that the cases of domestic violence published by the cyber media Hulondalo.Id were quite diverse. In the news, certain categorizations are formed for perpetrators and victims of domestic violence. This form of categorization becomes a pattern of media framing of cases of domestic violence that occurred in Gorontalo. The pattern made by Hulondalo.Id places the perpetrators as coercive, drunken, sadistic, barbaric, and persecuting figures. Meanwhile, the victim is positioned as a helpless figure, a patient young wife, and a poor woman. Ideologically the media position themselves as siding with the victim. But the textual facts prove that the Hulondalo.Id cyber media tends to exploit the identity of the victim rather than the identity of the perpetrators of domestic violence.
