This research explores how The Washington Post online newspaper represents Muslims and non-Muslims in the Jakarta governor election in 2017. The researcher obtained the data from the article in The Washington Post on May 5, 2017. This qualitative research used Norman Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis Theory (2003) approaches in the textual and social practice analysis dimensions. The textual analysis dimension is analyzed using Halliday's transitivity theory (2014), focusing on process type at representational meanings. The researcher collects, classifies, and explores the data. The findings show that the most apparent in the sentences of articles are mental and verbal processes, and there is no behavioral process. The result shows that the Washington Post represents Muslims primarily negatively. Muslims is represented as conflict maker and a winner in the event because of the non-Muslim candidate's offense. The Muslim society is represented as having conflict, and hard-line Muslim communities want to apply Islamic law to the Indonesian government.

“…The phenomenon of media trials and, more significantly, biased media discussions engender pervasive and unbalanced perceptions regarding contemporary events. (Drabu 2018). As in the world, in Turkey, the representation of Islam has been questionable in the media, particularly in Turkish movies (Çeliker 2023), because depiction is the production of meanings through language, and its meaning almost immediately involves the question of power (Hall 1997).…”

During a 2-year period, the depictions of religious figures and their interactions with secular individuals in urban daily life became an integral feature of Turkish soap operas that gained popularity in the world after the 1990s. While previous studies have explored the portrayal of various actors in them in terms of age, gender, socio-economic status, and historical perspectives, there is a lack of analysis regarding the interaction between secular and religious urban representations. This research aims to investigate the differences in everyday cosmopolitan perspectives in terms of spatiality and temporality between the two groups. To examine this, the soap opera Kızılcık Şerbeti (One Love) was analysed. Research has shown that when two groups develop their identities in opposition to one another, it leads to the emergence of different temporal and spatial dimensions within the same urban setting. While it seems unfeasible to reconcile the daily routines of both groups in the same place, age, gender, education, and class make negotiation possible in shared spaces. This draws attention to the intersectional approach rather than the binary positions of identities in the placemaking process. The main contribution of this research is to integrate religion, which has been forgotten in human geography, into geographical and sociological discussions by focusing on an intersectional approach in an urban context.

Struktur makro sendiri dimaknai sebagai pemaknaan secara umum terhadap teks dilihat dari wacana yang dimunculkan dalam tema tertentu (Drabu, 2018;López Maestre, 2020;Van Dijk, 2008). Hal yang diamati dalam struktur makro fokus pada aspek apa yang dikatakan (tematik) dalam berita yang di analisis, pertanyaan ini selanjutnya dapat dilihat dalam topik berita (Faircloucgh, 2012;Susilo, 2021;Van Dijk, 2014).…”
