Fake News and Political Language on Social Media: Discourse Analysis on Indonesia's Twitter During 2019 Presidential Election



The purpose of this study is to identify the issues that are constructed as political fake news on social media, particularly on Twitter, and to analyse how these fake news are politically framed. Twitter has become a battleground for political clashes between presidential candidates in Indonesia's Presidential Election 2019. Specifically, this study will examine the fake news issues that are starting to emerge on Twitter in relation to Indonesia's 2019 Presidential Election, particularly those involving the incumbent presidential candidate, Joko Widodo, who, according to previous research, has been the target of the most fake news attacks and hate speeches on social media. The discourse analysis is limited to issues involving fake news with the hashtag #2019gantippresiden (#2019changethepresident) that were posted on Twitter during the voting period (April 2019) and also in the early days of the hashtag's emergence (April 2018). The findings of this study indicate that the issues that have consistently been constructed as fake news are Jokowi's partiality and submission to China, defending Chinese Foreign Workers, Jokowi being a Communist, the criminalization of Ulama (Islamic leader), and the incumbent government's failure. The way fake news issues are packaged is through the use of provocative language, exaggeration of the issues or personal denigration, in-group favouritism (which is primarily directed at Muslims), and out-group derogation (secular, capitalist, liberal, neo-liberal, Chinese, Communist).
