Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is one of the most widely covered news stories in 2020, particular ly in March 2020, when the COVID-19 virus made its first appearance in Indonesia. The government also responded to the Covid-19 virus’s entry into Indonesia by issuing health, social, and economic policies. Reporting on the government’ s actio ns is undoubtedly one of the Indonesian media’ s objectives. Kompas.com is one of the media outlets that publish news about the governmen t’ s actions. The seven news articles published by Kompas.com in March 2020 are the subject of this study. This research employs a qualitati ve approach and analyzes data using Robert N. Entman’s framing model analysis. According to Robert Entman’s analysis, news framing can be viewed in two dimensions: issue selection and aspect highlighting. By analyzing seven news articles published by Kompas.com using Rober t N. Entman’s framing model, it was concluded that the construction of Kompas.com news was that the government was having difficulty dealing with the spread of COVID-19 in Indonesia.
