Abstract
This study aims to analyze the headline coverage of Jawa Pos and Kompas newspapers on the April 16 and April 18, 2019 editions, during the Indonesian Presidential and Vice Presidential Election. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, the research focuses on structured observation and writing processes, incorporating Robert N. Entman's framing analysis theory.

This neutrality is discerned through a lack of elements reflecting preference in the news coverage provided by both newspapers. The study contributes to the understanding of media dynamics in shaping perceptions during crucial political events.
