AGAMA DAN ENTERTAINMENT: FUNGSI SOSIAL MEDIA MASSA DALAM PROGRAM RELIGI DI TV
Abstract: Mass media have four
social functions. They are surveillance, correlation, socialization
(transmission of values), and entertainment (Lasswell & Wright in Dominick,
2005). A good mass media product is supposed to fulfill all those functions. So
is the television program. A good television program must include four social
functions of the mass media in balance. This article will highlight the religious
program on Indonesian television that has been growing recently. Several
religious programs on 11 television stations (state and private stations) have
been observed and results that the religious programs, whether in a talk show
or soap opera format, accentuate entertainment function more in comparison with
other functions.
