Abstrak
Pada era digital ini ternyata jurnalis dapat beradaptasi ke arah yang lebih
baik. Jurnalis dapat menyajikan berita dengan cara yang berbeda dari biasanya,
yaitu dengan menampilkannya di akun media sosial yang saat ini mayoritas
masyarakat menggunakan media sosial untuk mencari berita atau informasi.
Dengan mempermudah jurnalis dalam membuat berita di era digital ini, maka
dibutuhkan konten berita yang berkualitas untuk menjaga keakuratan dan nilai
berita. Selain itu, di era digital ini jurnalis dituntut untuk menghasilkan berita
dengan cepat. Menyajikan dan membuat berita dengan cepat tentu akan
mempengaruhi kualitas konten berita. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk
mengetahui apakah di era digital ini jurnalis masih mengutamakan kualitas konten
berita atau tidak. Penelitian ini ditujukan untuk 10 orang jurnalis dengan
menggunakan metode kualitatif dan diperoleh dengan menggunakan kuesioner.
Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa jurnalis masih memperhatikan kualitas
konten berita, mulai dari teknik pengumpulan berita, sumber berita, jenis berita,
dan konten berita. Selain itu, hal-hal kecil dalam penulisan berita yang
berpengaruh besar terhadap kualitas isi berita juga masih dipertimbangkan, seperti
judul yang sesuai dengan isi berita, kreativitas dalam penulisan berita, dan berita
yang dapat bermanfaat bagi pembaca.
Abstract
In this digital era, it turns out that journalists can adapt in a better direction.
Journalists can present news in a different way than usual, namely by displaying it
on social media accounts where the majority of people currently use social media
to find news or information. By making it easier for journalists to make news in
this digital era, quality news content is needed to maintain the accuracy and value
of the news. Also In this digital era, journalists are required to produce news
quickly. Presenting and making news quickly will certainly affect the quality of
news content. The purpose of this study is to determine whether, in this digital
era, journalists still prioritize the quality of news content or not. The objective of
this research is aimed at 10 journalists using qualitative methods obtained by
using a questionnaire. The results of this study show that journalists are still
concerned about the quality of news content, ranging from news collection
techniques, news sources, types of news, and news content. Besides that, small
things in news writing that have a big influence on the quality of news content are
also still being considered, such as titles that match with news content, creativity
in news writing, and news that can be useful for readers.
