Abstract
This thesis analyzes the reliability level in COVID-19 related news in Indonesia based on Bednarek’s (2006) media evaluation theory, which describes how likely and unlikely something will happen as written in the news story. There are two problems in this present study: (1) What are the most commonly used reliability parameter keywords in the COVID-19 related news in Indonesia, and (2) What is the context of each reliability parameter keyword found in COVID-19 related news in Indonesia. This study used a corpus analysis with Bednarek’s (2006) media evaluation to analyze the reliability level in COVID-19 related news in Indonesia. The data were collected from a specialized corpus compiled from The Jakarta Post news under COVID-19 starting from January 2020 to December 2020. The specialized COVID-19 corpus has around 300.000 words taken from about 600 articles. The reliability parameter was in the form of keywords found in the specialized COVID-19 corpus news text. The reliability parameter was analyzed using the corpus software Antconc concordance feature to see the occurrences in which the keywords are used and then valued using the context found in the examples to determine the reliability level. This study also used Aarts’ (2011) classifications of the uses of modal and Lewis’s (1994) descriptions of the modal to analyze the data. Because this research shows that modal is one of the categories in which the reliability parameter keywords often appear. This study reveals that 18 different keywords indicate reliability in the COVID-19 related news in Indonesia. Twelve of them are considered to have high-reliability values, such as will, would, may, might, cannot, reported, confirmed, expected, suspected, positive, likely, and reportedly. While eight others are considered to have low-reliability values such as could, can, unlikely, yet, probably, and possibly. The result shows that the COVID-19 related news in Indonesia has more high-reliability values than the lower ones. The context of these keywords revolves around COVID-19, starting from predictions, possibility, supposition, and past events. All of the context are all based on the information from some experts, some research, and government officials. It indicates that many things in COVID-19 news in Indonesia are written and described as very likely to happen.
