This article tries to see a phenomenon called Echo Chambers through the perspective of Stella Ting-Toomey’s Intercultural Communication Theory. This study shows that the development of social media was also followed by the shadow of Echo Chambers. The tendency to isolate oneself and associate with those who understand one another will create separate spaces between one religion and another. As a result, communication which is an effort to eliminate the polarization of the differences between "Us" and "The Others" is precisely the way to form an exclusivism in cyberspace. Among the efforts to anticipate the emergence of a gap is to create melting-pot spaces in the real world. Counter narrative also needs to be built to open these exclusive barriers. Muslim scholars sought to introduce the importance of communication in achieving the harmony in community. Some Ulama have also explained the role and function of communication in achieving the goals of the ummah, as well as trying to provide an Islamic perspective regarding communication behavior. More important, is to create a person who is a wise, open user of social media and uses epoche in looking at the world outside.

The COVID-19 pandemic has plagued all parts of the world, including Indonesia. Since its first appearance in China, the spread of the COVID-19 virus has been very fast and the number of infected people has grown very significantly and rapidly. Various information related to COVID-19 is spread on social media, especially Instagram. Some are true, some are misleading. Some believe in fact-based information and data, but others don't. There are those who believe in hoaxes, but there are also those who don't. Therefore, it is very important to measure the level of public trust based on what they see and what they perceive. Here the writer uses communication theory, communication media theory, factors that influence trust, and mass communication theory as the theoretical basis. This study uses millennial Instagram users in Jakarta as the object of research. So that when viewed in terms of variables, there are 2 variables, namely the Instagram # COVID-19 variable and the level of trust of the millennial community in Jakarta. The approach of this research is quantitative with a survey method which is carried out by distributing questionnaires in the form of google form to respondents who meet the requirements. Data processing uses the help of SPSS Version 20, from the respondent's data tested valid and reliable. The data analysis technique used regression analysis and the results proved that variable X had an effect on variable Y, because the significance value was 0. According to Sahid Raharjo (2018) if the significance value was <0.05, it was certain that there was an influence of variable x on variable Y. That means Instagram # COVID-19 has an influence on the level of trust of millennials in Jakarta.Pandemi COVID-19 telah mewabah di seluruh belahan dunia, tak terkecuali Indonesia. Sejak kemunculan pertamanya di negara Tiongkok, penyebaran virus COVID-19 sangat cepat dan angka orang yang tertular pun bertumbuh dengan sangat signifikan dan pesat. Berbagai informasi terkait COVID-19 tersebar di media sosial khususnya Instagram. Ada beberapa yang benar, ada juga menyesatkan. Ada yang percaya pada informasi yang berbasis fakta dan data, namun ada juga yang tidak. Ada yang percaya pada hoax, tetapi ada juga yang tidak percaya. Oleh karena itu, penting sekali untuk mengukur tingkat kepercayaan masyarakat berdasarkan apa yang mereka lihat dan yang mereka serap. Disini penulis menggunakan sejumlah teori dan konsep mulai darikomunikasi, media sosial, faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi kepercayaan, dan komunikasi massa. Penelitian ini menggunakan pengguna Instagram masyarakat millennial di Jakarta sebagai populasi sehingga jika dilihat dari segi variabel terdapat duavariabel yaitu variabel Instagram #COVID-19 dan variabel tingkat kepercayaan masyarakat millennial di Jakarta. Pendekatan penelitian ini adalah kuantitatif dengan metode survei yang dilakukan melalui penyebaran kuesioner dalam bentuk google form kepada responden yang memenuhi syarat. Pengolahan data menggunakan bantuan SPSS Versi 20, dari data responden teruji valid,dan reliabel. Teknik analisis data menggunakan analisis regresi dan hasilnya terbukti bahwa variabel X berpengaruh terhadap variabel Y, karena nilai signifikansinya 0. Menurut Sahid Raharjo (2018) jika nilai signifikansi < 0,05 maka bisa dipastikan bahwa terdapat pengaruh dari variabel x terhadap variabel Y.

Popularity of the social media and the amount of importance given by an individual to social media has significantly increased in last few years. As more and more people become part of the social networks like Twitter, Facebook, information which flows through the social network, can potentially give us good understanding about what is happening around in our locality, state, nation or even in the world. The conceptual motive behind the project is to develop a system which analyses about a topic searched on Twitter. It is designed to assist Information Analysts in understanding and exploring complex events as they unfold in the world. The system tracks changes in emotions over events, signalling possible flashpoints or abatement. For each trending topic, the system also shows a sentiment graph showing how positive and negative sentiments are trending as the topic is getting trended.

Language being a potent vehicle of transmitting cultural values, norms and beliefs remains a central factor in determining the status of any nation. India is a multilingual country which tends to encourage people to use English at national and international level. Basically English in India owes its presence to the British but its subsequent rise is not fully attributable to the British. It has now become the language of wider communication which is now spoken by large number of people all over the world. It is influenced by many factors such as class, society, developments in science and technology etc. However the major influence on English language is and has been the media.

Social media as a communication tool has enabled governments around the world to interact with citizens for customer service, access to information and to direct community involvement needs. The trends around the world show recognition by governments that social media content may constitute records and should be managed accordingly. The literature shows that governments and organisations in other countries, particularly in Europe, have social media policies and strategies to guide the management of social media content, but there is less evidence among African countries. Thus the purpose of this paper is to examine the extent of usage of social media by the Botswana government in order to determine the necessity for the governance of liquid communication. Liquid communication here refers to the type of communication that goes easily back and forth between participants involved through social media. The ARMA principle of availability requires that where there is information governance, an organisation shall maintain its information assets in a manner that ensures their timely, efficient and accurate retrieval. The study adopted a qualitative case study approach where data were collected through documentary reviews and interviews among purposively selected employees of the Botswana government. This study revealed that the Botswana government has been actively using social media platforms to interact with its citizens since 2011 for increased access, usage and awareness of services offered by the government. Nonetheless, the study revealed that the government had no official documentation on the use of social media, and policies and strategies that dealt with the governance of liquid communication. This study recommends the governance of liquid communication to ensure timely, efficient and accurate retrieval when needed for business purposes.

In today’s world, it is easier and easier to stay connected with people who are halfway across the world. Social media and a globalizing economy have created new methods of business, trade and socialization resulting in vast amounts of communication and effecting global commerce. Like her or hate her, Kimberly Noel Kardashian West as known as Kim Kardashian has capitalized on social media platforms and the globalizing economy. Kim is known for two things: famous for doing nothing and infamous for a sex tape. But Kim has not let those things define her. With over 105 million Instagram followers and 57 million Twitter followers, Kim has become a major global influence. Kim has travelled around the world, utilizing the success she has had on social media to teach make-up master classes with professional make-up artist, Mario Dedivanovic. She owns or has licensed several different businesses including: an emoji app, a personal app, a gaming app, a cosmetics line, and a fragrance line. Not to be forgotten, the Kardashian family show, ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ has been on the air for ten years with Kim at the forefront. Kim also has three books: ‘Kardashian Konfidential’, ‘Dollhouse’, and ‘Selfish’. With her rising social media following, Kim has used the platforms to show her support for politicians and causes, particularly, recognition of the Armenian genocide. Kim also recently spoke at the Forbes’ women’s summit. Following the summit, Kim tweeted out her support for a recent movement on Twitter, #freeCyntoiaBrown which advocated for a young woman who claimed to have shot and killed the man who held her captive as a teenage sex slave in self-defense. Kim had her own personal lawyers help out Cyntoia on her case. Kim has also moved beyond advocating for issues within the confines of the United States. As mentioned earlier, she is known for advocating for recognition of the Armenian genocide. In the last two years, her show has made it a point to address the Armenian situation as it was then and as it is now. Kim has been recognized as a global influencer by others across the wordl. We believe Kim has become the same as political leaders when it comes to influencing the public. Kim’s story reveals that the new reality creates a perfect opportunity for mass disturbances or for initiating mass support or mass disapproval. Although Kim is typically viewed for her significance to pop culture, Kim’s business and social media following have placed her deep into the mix of international commerce. As her businesses continue to grow and thrive, we may see more of her influence on international issues and an increase in the commerce from which her businesses benefit.

In my discussion of Cooren’s piece, I set out to accomplish three things. First, I situate Cooren within a broader horizon of pragmatist thought to discuss how his work aligns with pragmatism. Second, I examine how Cooren deploys pragmatism to constitute a scholarly field of communication theory, a project seeking to transcend the current configuration of the field by systematizing discourse around a “metamodel”. Third, I ask what else Cooren’s pragmatism might do. Pragmatism, according to Cooren, offers us an agentive conception of the world.
