Theoretically, the media and politics can not be separated. Media and politics are like two sides of the same coin in which each one requires another. This is what happened in Aceh. Media and political links are highly visible in the practice of the press in Aceh. The presence of the media in Aceh seems very much to serve the political ambition through the news. The practice of the press industry looks like it is thick with the nuances of interest, which is interestingly studied with the approach of political economy. Political economy theorists see that there are certain groups that control economic institutions that then affect other social institutions, including the media and the press. In other words, the mastery of economic institutions will lead to the mastery of almost all aspects of life, ranging from small things such as how to eat to big things like communication devices. The mastery is meant to perpetuate their economic power. In the context of Aceh specially post-enactment of the Law on Aceh Goverment. The presence of local media is not only a part of the vortex of information, but also present as part of local political democratization. This is the challenge of the media or the local press itself. Does the media capable of maintaining its independence in managing information? or actually engaging in political practices in favor of certain political groups? Keywords: Local Media, Political Economic Media, Elite Politic, Aceh.

The Relationship

<p>Nowadays the relationship between media and politics has reached a new dimension especially with the developments in the dynamics of the societies.  Usage of entertainment elements by politicians in order to take place in the media and usage of entertaining political contents in the media have increased the importance of the entertainment in political communication. This has led to the discussions on the concept of “<em>politainment</em>”, a portmanteau word composed of politics and entertainment which is seen a new form of political communication. The German political scientist Andreas Dörner coined this concept to the social sciences that can be translated in Turkish entertaining politics. The main aim and objectives of this study are examining the concept of <em>politainment</em>, addressing the change in the relationship between media and politics as well as in the understanding of news reporting in the case of United States’ (US) one of the most popular TV program “The Daily Show”. According to the findings of the study, usage of the elements of entertainment by politicians, make them more visible in the media, creates more awareness for the messages they want to convey, and make their messages more memorable and appealing. Also the media uses various political elements to differentiate its content and make it more appealing to their audience. This has led to a symbiotic relationship between media, politics and entertainment, which is based on a mutually beneficial understanding. The Daily Show is one of the most concrete and important examples of <em>politainment</em> concept. The program approaches to the national and international problems critically but in an entertaining way and makes these problems more popular and therefore more debatable. Besides this, politicians are aware of the effects and popularity of this program and therefore they often participate in the program and convey their ideas and political aims to the audiences, in this way they try to gain the sympathy and support.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Özet</strong></p><p>Günümüzde medya ve siyaset arasındaki ilişki toplum dinamiklerinde meydana gelen yeni gelişmelerle beraber farklı bir boyuta ulaşmıştır. Giderek artan bir şekilde politikacıların eğlence unsurlarını kullanarak medyada yer alması ve medyanın da izleyicisine politik içerikleri eğlenceli bir şekilde sunması, siyasal iletişimde eğlencenin önemini arttırmıştır. Bu durum siyasal iletişimde yeni bir unsur olarak görülen, politika (politics) ve eğlence (entertainment) kelimelerinin birleşmesiyle oluşturulmuş, <em>politainment</em> kavramının tartışılmasına neden olmuştur. Türkçe’ye eğlenceli siyaset olarak çevrilebilecek olan <em>politainment</em> kavramı, Alman siyaset bilimci Andreas Dörner tarafından sosyal bilimlere kazandırılmıştır. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı Dörner’ın ortaya attığı <em>politainment </em>kavramını irdelemek, medya - siyaset ilişkisindeki ve habercilik anlayışındaki bu değişimi Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nin (ABD) popüler TV programlarından biri olan ‘The Daily Show’ isimli program örneğinde ele almaktır. Çalışmada elde edilen verilere göre siyasetçiler tarafından eğlencenin bir araç olarak kullanılması, politikacıları medyada daha görünür hale getirmekte, iletmek istedikleri mesajlar hakkında farkındalık yaratmakta, bu mesajları daha akılda kalıcı ve çekici kılabilmektedir. Medya ise, izleyicisine sunduğu içeriklerin diğerlerinden farklılaşmasını ve daha cazip hale gelmesini sağlamak için politik içerikleri kullanmaktadır. Bu durum medya, siyaset ve eğlence arasında karşılıklı fayda anlayışına dayalı ‘simbiyotik’ bir ilişkiyi doğurmuştur. <em>Politainment</em>ın medyadaki en önemli örneklerinden birini The Daily Show programı oluşturmaktadır. Program, ulusal ve uluslararası sorunlara eleştirel ancak eğlenceli bir şekilde yaklaşmakta, bu sorunların popülerleşerek daha fazla tartışılabilmesine imkân vermektedir. Siyasetçiler de The Daily Show’un popülerliğinden haberdar bir şekilde bu programa sıklıkla katılmakta, düşüncelerini ve siyasal hedeflerini izler kitleye aktarmakta, bu yolla sempati ve destek kazanmaktadır.</p>

The Impact

Disasters are significant events with enormous consequences for democratic political systems. As such, they provide important insights into how governmental institutions address hazardous situations. They also reveal the critical role that the media and politics play in this process. These themes are echoed in the general research on disasters, as well as in the accounts of hazardous events occurring in specific communities and locales. However, despite the wealth of scholarship conducted on this topic across a variety of disciplines, important questions remain about what role citizens play in this process, as well as the impact of governmental hazard management policies on broader democratic processes and societal conditions.
