MEDIA MASSA DAN “POLITICAL LITERACY”: PEMANFAATAN BERITA POLITIK DI KALANGAN REMAJA
Abstrak: The role of mass
media in creating cognitive response concerning input function, conversion
process, and political system output is lower than political system capability.
This difference is due to two reasons: (1) in teenager’s thinking domain, input
function, conversion process, and political output are more
theoretical-abstract; (2) political news exposure in mass media is more
highlighting demanded citizen characteristics as important attributes of
political system capability. This means that though teenagers are considered to
be important in political domain, political news exposure has not been
considering teenagers’ psycho-political aspect.
KATA KUNCI: political news,
political socialization, cognition, political system function and capabilities
