News objectivity serves as a crucial foundation for maintaining media integrity amid the digital information flow. This study aims to analyze the objectivity of news coverage by Kompas.com in the “Most Popular Index” section concerning the “First 100 Days of Prabowo-Gibran.” The research employs a descriptive qualitative method with a case study approach and content analysis based on Westerstahl’s objectivity model, which includes the dimensions of factuality and impartiality. The findings indicate that the news coverage demonstrates a high level of factual accuracy and relevance, with information that is accurate, comprehensive, and sourced from credible references. The neutrality of news presentation is also maintained, free from evaluative or sensational elements. However, the aspect of balance still requires improvement, as most articles present only a single point of view. Kompas.com’s reporting on this topic can be considered objective in terms of factuality and neutrality, though the inclusion of diverse perspectives remains an important note for strengthening overall objectivity.
