Implications of Case Resolution Mechanism Due to Press Coverage through Non-Litigation Channels

Abstract

Today's news development in the media is very rapid, both traditional and electronic. Following technological developments, people can receive news from media worldwide directly through various means such as television, radio, newspapers, and even the Internet. Therefore, as a democratic country, Indonesia must be able to fulfill its obligation to guarantee press freedom and encourage the press to serve the interests of the public in seeking information.

All disputes can be resolved through arbitration procedures stipulated in Law No. 40 of 1999 (from now on referred to as the Press Law) through mediation through non-judicial channels. However, not all disputes resolved in such a way can satisfy the parties and create legal certainty.

Still, it is always "in the process of becoming" (law as process, law in the making), namely towards perfection in the sense of becoming a just law, a law capable of realizing prosperity, or a law that cares for the people (Putra & Rahayuningsih, 2023). Therefore, progressive law does not place favorable legal rules as a complete source of law.…”
