MENCARI PENANGGUNG JAWAB PERS
Abstract: article 12 of Law
No. 40 Year 1999 on Press stipulates that the press corporate leaders in charge
of business and editing will be responsible for any wrongdoing in their media
publication. Since most of the Indonesian press legal entity is "Perseroan
Terbatas" (PT), so the board of directors is considered the responsible
body to represent the whole elements in the corporation. But, this law does not
give any clear explanation whether its president director can delegate such
responsibility to his subordinates as adopted in the previous regulation. The
author of this article elaborates several concepts of press liability and
finally, recommends a very possible solution for this controversy.
