Abstract
This study aims to uncover the information reproduction pattern of Middle East conflict in Indonesian online mass media. The study model is descriptive qualitative model. The data was taken from the reports on Syrian conflict in Indonesian online mass media i.e. Republika, Kompas, and Tempo. In accordance with the orientation of the study, the data must be conducted on the news from January to October 2018. Data were analyzed by using Miles and Huberman stages of qualitative analysis models. The findings of the study indicate that each media from the data source taken has different ways and perspective in reproducing information and news related to the Middle East conflict. Republika tends to take the point of view againts Syrian government, which bring the United States and its allies to be the central of the news. In the other hand, Kompas is departed from the point of view of the Syrian government and allies by dwarfing the United States and its allies in the news. As the third axis, Tempo takes a chronological perspective and highlights many humanitarian issues in the news.
