Abstract

During the 1999-campaign period generally the mass media in Indonesia constructed political parties like a music group; and present the politicians acts as celebrities. At that time, national newspapers describe political parties as the instrument to harvested masses. Meanwhile the political party functions, as broker within the clearinghouse of ideas in the democratic lives didn’t appear within the political party’s discourse. In spite of the media have different interests one each other in news making the political parties, such as ideological, idealism, political, and economic or market factors.

Bahasa Abstract

Selama kampanye Pemilu 1999 umumnya media massa Indonesia mengkonstruksikan partai politik ibarat grup musik; dan menjadikan para tokohnya sebagai selebritis. Pada masa itu, koran-koran nasional menggambarkan partai politik sebagai alat pengumpul massa. Sementara fungsi parpol sebagai perantara (broker) dalam suatu bursa ide-ide (clearing house of ideas) dalam kehidupan berdemokrasi tidak terlihat dalam pengkonstruksian tersebut. Menariknya, hal itu terjadi dalam kondisi dimana setiap media memiliki motivasi yang berbeda-beda, entah itu ideologis, idealis, politis, ataupun ekonomis, dalam membuat berita politik.
