Bila direzim Orde Baru, agen utama dalam tekanan ini adalah Pemerintah, saat ini pemilik Koran menjadi figur kuat yang memaksakan kehendak dan membatasi otonomi jurnalis Indonesia. Even though Indonesia has entered a new era of democracy and press freedom, self-sensorship still exists in the professional practices of many Indonesia newspaper journalists. Indonesia has a long history of cencorship, particularly from the government encouraging journalists to self-ensor their work. As such, self-censorship has been encouraged and promoted through the institutionalised and internalised values of many Indonesian newspaper publications. Through interviews with journalists who work for new and re-established newspaper in Indonesia, this article will explain how the practice has evolved, and how it persist today.
