- Abstract
This research was motivated by the reporting of religious issues involving Viktor Laiskodat. The news of the pros and cons of the speech delivered by Viktor about the caliphate state, was feared to trigger a bigger conflict because it was related to the very principle, namely religious issues. The method used in this study is qualitative using Fairclough's critical discourse analysis approach. The purpose of this study is to describe the dimensions of the text, the relationship between ideology and linguistic aspects produced, and describe the social, political and cultural situation behind the reporting of religious issues involving Viktor Laiskodat. The results showed that based on the analysis of textual dimensions, the media used vocabulary, grammar, modalities, direct and indirect quotations as a strategy to represent the main actors and events in reporting "religious issues" involving Viktor Laiskodat. Moreover, the analysis of media ideology and linguistic strategies used indicates that Mediaindonesia.com tends to be partial towards Viktor as the main actor reporting on "religious issues", while Republika.co.id does not favor Viktor as the main actor reporting on "religious issues". While based on social, political, and cultural analysis underlying the reporting of religious issues involving Viktor Laiskodat, shows that Indonesia's current political situation, the relationship between the owners of Mediaindonesia.com, the Nasdem and Viktor parties, and the relationship between Islam and Republika.co.id also influences the news published in both online media.
