Abstract

This work explores what drives Indonesian journalists’ perceptions of media powers as political image-makers. The findings indicate that the following structural factors determined their perceptions: the journalists’ willingness to adopt the news media logic, journalists’ conceptions of the media as primary sources of political information and media and journalist independencies. The effects of these factors on journalists’ perceptions are defined by the types of media content, platform and media ownership with which they are associated and also the journalists’ age, gender, education level and position in the media organisation.
