Abstract

This study discussed the 2019 Indonesian Presidential Election, which was constructed by online mass media. Since mass media and politics are two inseparable things, they have attractive mutual interests. On this basis, the presumption that the process of news production, editorial policy and the ideal values of journalism itself influenced by the ties of power related to the interest of the mass media owners and also the political interest is established. This research specifically discussed the news published by tempo.co and republika.co.id about the 2019 presidential election as research objects. This study used the Zhondang Pan and Gerald M. Kosicki models for framing research. The results showed that in framing the news both tempo.co and republika.co.id corresponded to two extreme points, having variations and having similarities. It is more significant because of the mass media’s ideology than the mass media’s ownership factor.
