The program is used as a strategic media for groups of people from the background of social and politics, employing the oral designing, to influence public’s perception and opinion. As a result, it forms a particular discourse. A good discourse should not reveal various perception of the recipients. From every oral discourse being produced (either it is good or bad) will form various perception and drive public’s opinion. In this investigation, it focuses on Mata Najwa’s “Gara-Gara Tagar†which was broadcast live on Wednesday September 5th 2018 in Trans 7. The study of discourse, in this research, employs Van Dijk modeling on critical discourse analysis whose perspective is that language has strong relationship with power, ideology and politics.
