Abstract

This study aims to construct reporting on cases of domestic violence that befell LK and RB in various Instagram news headlines through Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis approach. Sources of data were taken from an online news media called Instagram, namely narasinewsroom, detikcom, and liputan6 with a publication time range from September to October 2022 with research subjects in the form of news headlines related to celebrity news. With the three dimensions of discourse from Norman Fairclough's critical discourse analysis, data analysis was carried out in three stages, namely the descriptive analysis stage, the interpretation analysis stage, and the explanatory analysis stage. The results found that through the microstructural dimension, the eight news headlines used language tools by 1) choosing vocabulary that was focused on the various phrases, 2) grammatical units dominated by phrases, and 3) a form of news that emphasize declarative sentences. Then, through the mesostructural dimension, the three instagram news headlines have different characteristics and characters in delivering their news, but are still presented accurately and objectively so that the news content can be conveyed to readers. Finally, through the macrostructural dimension, with the news of domestic violence cases, LK and RB received a negative image in the eyes of the Indonesian people, because they were seen as contradicting their previous image as a harmonious couple. The public is disappointed with LK's decision to reconcile with RB on the basis of household sustainability. Again, gender awareness for victims of domestic violence needs to be encouraged because it is difficult for victims of domestic violence to get out of abusive relationships. This negative image is formed by news headlines using tendentious language to attract readers.
