Abstract

Meskipun usianya cukup muda, Internet telah konsisten dan memainkan peran kunci dalam menciptakan dan menyebarluaskan keyakinan konspiratif. Ia juga telah memfasilitasi keyakinan konspirasi untuk tersebar luas sejak era Web 1.0 . Dengan penemuan Web 2.0 atau platform media sosial, kekuatan Internet menjadi lebih unggul yang memungkinkan berbagai argumen tentang keyakinan konspiratif tertentu bertemu. Dalam kehidupan nyata, keyakinan konspiratif yang disebarluaskan melalui Internet telah menyebabkan efek sosial yang parah khususnya mengenai vaksinasi. Adalah Internet yang membuat keyakinan konspiratif anti vaksinasi menjadi terkenal yang mengakibatkan program vaksinasi terhambat di beberapa negara termasuk di Indonesia. Despite its quite young age, the Internet has been consistent and influential in creating and disseminating conspiratorial beliefs. It has also facilitated conspiratorial beliefs to circulate since the Web 1.0 era to the present time. With the invention of Web 2.0 and social media platforms, the power of the Internet becomes more eminent, including allowing different arguments about particular conspiratorial beliefs to intersect. In real life, conspiratorial beliefs disseminated through the Internet have caused severe social effects, particularly concerning vaccination. It is the Internet that makes anti-vaccination conspiratorial beliefs rise to fame, which results in vaccination programs hindered in several countries, including Indonesia.

Abstract

In late 2011, Occupy Wall Street (OWS) grabbed the attention of American mass media. Media coverage on the anti-capitalist movement was mixed, some was positive and the majority was negative. Using Robert Entman’s framing theory, this paper provides a framing analysis of the OWS movement from mass media and occupiers’ media. Content analysis of news articles published by three different media platforms demonstrates that media framing of the OWS by both mass and occupiers’ media differs in terms of reporting and news focus. The difference results from the ideological streams of the three media in connection with respective political and socioeconomic interests. Despite the help of the internet that enables social movements to create alternative media for message distribution and follower mobilization, yet they are still lack of loyal fans and legitimacy. Nonetheless, alternative media such as that of the OWS are able to fight over meaning of social movement issues through the creation and dissemination of counter frames and disrupt the hegemonic power of mass media in framing social movements
