Abstrak
This study aims to analyze how online media frame the government's role in disaster management and to identify the dominant framing patterns in disaster-related news coverage. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach using Robert N. Entman’s framing analysis model, which consists of four key elements: define problems, diagnose causes, make moral judgments, and treatment recommendations. Data were collected through documentation techniques from news articles published on the Detik.com online news portal. The findings reveal that Detik.com tends to frame the government, particularly President Prabowo Subianto, as the primary actor in disaster management efforts in Sumatra. The news coverage consistently highlights the President’s activities in visiting disaster-affected areas, providing strategic directives, and leading inter-ministerial coordination as evidence of the government's commitment to protecting affected communities. Furthermore, the study demonstrates that Detik.com constructs a predominantly positive image of the central government in disaster management. These findings reinforce the relevance of framing theory in explaining how media shape public perceptions of governmental performance in specific contexts.
