This research aims to identify and describe how exclusion and inclusion strategies are used in representing actors in the news coverage of the Kanjuruhan tragedy. The aim is to identify the image of the actor being represented in order to understand media tendencies. The data for this research was taken from Al-Jazeera media. Data collection was carried out using observation and documentation techniques complemented by descriptive and reflective notes. Data analysis was conducted by referring to Theo Van Leeuwen’s AWK framework. The results showed that in Al-Jazeera media there were 2 strategies with the inclusion process and 6 strategies with the exclusion process in reporting the Kanjuruhan tragedy. In the exclusion process, 7 data were found with nominalisation and passivation strategies. Then, in the inclusion process, 14 data were found with the strategies of differentiation, objectivation, abstraction, determination, individualisation, and association. In the exclusion process, Al-Jazeera does not have a certain tendency and tends to be neutral. As for the inclusion strategy, Al-Jazeera tends to present football supporters negatively. This was intended to highlight the image of the police as a positive government agency and cover up the negative stigma of tear gas shooting. Therefore, this study implies criticizing unbalanced discourses so that the public can better understand narratives that tend to be provocative in various news reports.
