2024 | Ahmad Salman Farid*, Rizka Ar Rahmah, Irmasanı Daulay, Desiana
This research explores the intersection of theology and ethics in values-based journalism, focusing on the communication of Islamic perspectives. In the contemporary media landscape, where journalism plays a crucial role in shaping public discourse, it is essential to analyze how Islamic values are communicated through the lens of ethical journalism. The study investigates the application of Islamic theology and ethical principles in values-based journalism, emphasizing the role of media in reflecting and shaping societal norms. Using a qualitative research approach, content analysis is conducted on a sample of news articles, opinion pieces, and other journalistic content with an Islamic focus. The analysis examines how these pieces adhere to or deviate from established theological principles and ethical guidelines. The research also identifies challenges faced by journalists and media organizations in integrating Islamic values into their narratives and explores potential strategies and best practices for overcoming these challenges. The findings contribute to the ongoing discourse on the role of theology and ethics in journalism, providing insights into how media professionals can effectively communicate Islamic values while upholding ethical standards. The study aims to encourage a more informed and respectful portrayal of Islamic perspectives in the media, promoting dialogue and understanding in an increasingly diverse and interconnected global society. Keywords: Islamic journalism, communication, theological perspectives, ethical media practices.This research explores the intersection of theology and ethics in values-based journalism, focusing on the communication of Islamic perspectives.
