Abstract

The most harmed party in sexual violence cases is female. This study aims to shed light on how news texts model sexual assault cases. This type of research is qualitative using descriptive methods. The research data is an excerpt from a media news online article containing cases of ISIS sex offenders collected over sixteen texts from various media online. News texts were analyzed using Sara Mills model critical discourse analysis theory. The results of the study were (1) seven texts featuring victims as subject matter; (2) one text featuring the victim’s defense as the subject of the story; (3) seven texts featuring victims and defendants as the subject of the story; and (4) one text featuring the victim, the victim’s advocate, and the perpetrator as the subject of the story. In the news of a sexual assault case, the text must be written based on the information of the offending party. Based on the text models found, it can be concluded that the mass media plays a role in defending female victims of sexual assault.
