Abstract

The presence of people who are quite potential as influencers can certainly have an effect in providing an impact or information that will immediately spread to the community. Some of them are equipped with good rhetoric skills. Rhetoric itself is the ability to persuade someone through a given message or gesture, one of which is in the form of a campaign. The ability to rhetoric itself is important for a communicator to do so that messages or information can be conveyed properly to the audience. Likewise what happened to a member of the band SID (Superman Is Dead), who recently became a conversation because of his actions that spread messages through his personal Instagram account. Many responses came from internet users, both pros and cons. Jerinx, or whose real name is I Gede Ari Astina, once uploaded his statement regarding a case related to a pandemic which certainly caused a commotion to the public. However, not a few of them thought hard about Jerinx's opinion, who said that "IDI is a WHO worker". This statement he made was further strengthened when his legal authority spoke to the public if Jerinx had previously asked the IDI (Indonesian Doctors' Association) to speak privately and explain the real situation in Indonesia today. But unfortunately the invitation has not been fulfilled. Of course, this post made by Jerinx in digital media makes the public more aware and thinks twice about the phenomena that exist in the pandemic era and sort out which information is appropriate or not.
