SELF-REGULATION & PERSOALAN ETIKA DALAM INDUSTRI PENYIARAN DI INDONESIA (Mendambakan Penyiaran Radio yang Beretika)
Abstract: Radio broadcasting
industry developed rapidly after the reform due to the independent press. This
is evidenced by the increasing number of radio stations that have been in
operation and has an official permit, as well as the station requested
permission to broadcast or radio stations that do not have official permission.
Unfortunately, an increasing number of radio stations in quantity is not
followed by an increase in quality, both in terms of broadcast content as well
as the behavior of the perpetrators of these media broadcasting. Many ethical
violations that negatively affect the public.
This paper intends to assert the importance of regulation for radio
broadcasters, both legislation and self-regulation in the form of regulations
set by the Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (Komisi Penyiaran Indonesia).
More deeply about the importance of understanding and applying ethics in radio
broadcasting activities. Radio broadcasting not only has a function as a medium
of information, education, wholesome entertainment, control and social
cohesion, but also has the function of economy and culture. However, it does
not mean eliminating one of the functions or the domination of one function
only. Dilemma competition in the radio broadcasting industry is not expected to
make the radio industry only producing broadcast content that interests only,
but should also contain ethical values. Thus, the establishment of radio
broadcasting that 'healthy' is not just a mere dream.
