Politics is a unique term. On the one hand, many young people avoid it. But on the other hand, I very much loved it. There is even an extraordinary sense of self-confidence when someone is politically literate. There was a time when political themes were very annoying, namely when riots accompanied many political phenomena. However, lately, political themes have begun to warm up among young people.

In the expert lectures organized by the Communication Department UII, an assistant editor at pinterpolitik.com media named Alfin Risky was presented. In UII’s Communication Department, expert lectures are often held by inviting a practitioner or expert on a related subject. In this discussion, the Expert Lecture was held in a Political Communication course session. Narayana Mahendra Prastya and Dian Dwi Anisa taught this course. The expert lecture on 5 November 2022 discussed many things, including how they create content at pinterpolitik.com.

In managing the pinterpolitik.com portal, there is a daily routine that Alfin and his team usually do. Media that has several social media that use various types of publication platforms has a fairly systematic workflow. Among them are brainstorming, writing outlines, designing infographics, and making videos and publications. How does this online media work to package political content for young people? The following is an excerpt from this online expert lecture.

Brainstorming

In the very first stage, every morning, the team brainstorms about a new angle or perspective that we will make today in writing, infographics, and videos. In this process, each writer will present their ideas.

Outline

So, each of the ideas that obtained on the brainstorming stage will be considered by the editor in chief. All the crew will systematize their ideas in an outline. The editor will approve any ideas.

Written Pieces

“If the editor has approved it, the idea will be written down and elaborated with data and other supporting ideas,” said Alfin. This article is written in just 60 words, so it is fast and can be posted on Instagram. There are also articles written in long writing for certain rubrics.

Infographics

This writing will also be strengthened by infographics created by a separate team, namely the infographics team.

Shooting and Video Editing

As stated by Alfin, apart from being visualized with infographics, writing is also illustrated with audio-visual videos. Here, the video team will create a storyboard and shoot according to the script. The Video Editors will edit the video by not forgetting to give a motion graphic effect.

Content Publish

in the end, the Social Media officer will upload all that content on Youtube, Tiktok channels, and other smart political social media.

Tragedi menyedihkan di ajang sepakbola Indonesia terjadi di Malang. Kejadiannya terjadi pada 1 Oktober 2022. Saat itu  Klub sepak bola persebaya bertanding melawan Klub Arema malang. Saat itu, ketika pertandingan selesai, terliaht suporter masuk lapangan. Lalu berangsur masuk yang lain. Banyak. Lalu tiba-tiba polisi menyemprotkan gas air mata. Kondisi menjadi gaduh dan berdasarkan catatan per 13 Oktober 2022, jatuh 754 korban dan 135 meninggal.

Narayana Mahendra Prastya, dosen Komunikasi UII, yang juga spesialis dalam klaster riset Jurnalisme dan Komunikasi Olahraga serta Sepakbola Indonesia, mengatakan sayangnya kejadian ini jadi sorotan karena ada kejadian besar. “Ada banyak korban dulu, baru beritanya menyebar besar,” kata Narayana dalam diskusi bertajuk “Refleksi Masa Depan Sepak Bola Indonesia” yang diselenggarakan oleh Podcast LPM Kognisia FPSB UII dan disiarkan pada 31 Oktober 2022.

Narayana juga melakukan penelusuran singkat terkait kejadian ini. “Saya iseng cari data, sejak 2010 ada kejadian penggunaan gas air mata untuk membubarkan keributan di stadion. Itu melanggar aturan FIFA. Jadi sejak 2010 ada pelanggaran,” ungkap Narayana. Padahal PSSI paham aturan tersebut, kata Nara, panggilan akrab Narayana.

Nara kemudian mempertanyakan, “Selama ini PSSI ngobrol nggak sama keamanan. Jadi SOP keamanan di stadion itu DO and DONT-nya apa saja. Seharuskan itu dikomunikasikan.” Mengapa sudah ada 10 kejadian tetapi kejadian kali ini tetap berulang, katanya. Padahal, menurut Nara, penelusurannya itu baru sepuluh tahun tetakhir. “Kalau dirunut lagi ke belakang saya kira akan lebih banyak lagi. Sudah 11 ditambah Kanjuruhan ini,” kata Nara.

Selain Nara, mahasiswa Komunikasi UII, Khalif Madani juga menjadi pembicara pada diskusi di Poscast ini. Alif, panggilan akrabnya, kini didapuk jadi panelis.Alif juga adalah anggota Campus Boys 1976, komunitas supporter PSS Sleman. Menurut Alif, suporter sering disebut sebagai kambing hitam kerusuhan ketika terjadi kejadian.

Senada dengan Alif, padahal tidak semua suporter bisa disamaratakan. Seakan Suporter adalah faktor tunggal terjadinya kerusuhan. Dalam kesempatan lain, Nara juga pernah mengungkap bahwa sejatinya media sosial juga harusnya disoroti dalam terjadinya kerusuhan. Selain juga, kini suporter banyak juga yang menjadi motor perubahan dan kontrol tim.

In Malang, a heartbreaking tragedy hit the Indonesian football arena. Tear gas shot at the Kanjuruhan Stadium after the Arema versus Persebaya match on October 1, 2022. On October 13, 2022, 754 victims and 135 spectators died. At this point, fans were seen on the pitch as the game ended. Then gradually enter the other supporters. The police then suddenly released tear gas.

There have been riots at football matches. In the Kanjuruhan case, tear gas was fired by the police to drive away the crowd. Many parties point to this as the main reason for the high number of victims. Is there an alternative to dispel the riots? The answer to this question emerged in the student Press Kognisia discussion organized by Podcast, which aired on October 31, 2022.

Narayana, a UII Communication Lecturer, also thought it was time for politics to enter. “Managing society is politics,” said Nara. In a football context, this attendance must be managed. So, according to Nara, conditions at Kanjuruhan are over capacity. Second, it is also about disaster mitigation. There are social disasters, but so far, natural disasters have been mitigated. “But a disaster at a football stadium like this has not been properly planned,” said Nara, Narayana’s nickname. There should be a mitigation plan and political considerations in holding the match.

Based on a short brief tracking by Nara related to this incident, there were 10 cases of tear gas. Nara traced from the data so far that there have been tear gas incidents to disperse stadium crowds since 2010. This violated FIFA rules. So since 2010, there have been violations,” said Narayana. Even though PSSI understands these rules, said Nara, Narayana’s nickname.

“Tear gas is not allowed; weapons are not allowed either. Attributes should also be as minimal as possible; even police uniforms with badges are also recommended to wear brown shirts,” said Alif Madani, a PSS Sleman supporter. Alif, a 2016 batch of UII Communications students, added that security must consider the masses under normal conditions. there were so many, especially if the masses were about to leave the stadium. So many people would take a long time to leave. Especially in the Kanjuruhan incident, tear gas was fired at the spectators. Moreover, someone was fired at the exit,” explained Alif. Victims fell inevitably amid the panic.

According to Alif, another thing that can be done is to use an alternative to tear gas. For example, bringing K9 dogs and an appeal issued by club officials. “K9 dogs , there was it yesterday in Malang. They were backwards when released. It could also be, for example, for example, club officials or team captains are given a loudspeaker and told to speak; it can slow down,” suggested Alif. This suggestion does not mean it is not based on experience.

PSSI and activity managers can learn from what has happened before. “Once in Sleman, it was crowded; we fans suggest that later there will be Bagus Nirwanto, the captain of the PSS Sleman team. Bahdim take a role, can be used to calm the masses. Which is respected by the elder supporters,” said Alif Madani.
