Abstract:
Indonesia is a state of law, and one of the characteristics of the rule of law is freedom of opinion, freedom of association, and guarantee of the protection of human rights. The legal basis for freedom opinion is not only direct, but also through the media, including media journalism regulated in Law Number 40 Year 1999 concerning Press. However, the press law does not include a news aggregator. Because the news aggregator is not included in the object of the press law and journalism code of ethics. So that the disputes related to news aggregators can only be resolved on a criminal law or civil law basis, an example in this case is case number 146 / Pdt.G / 2018 / PN.Jkt.Sel (BaBe v Tommy Soeharto). The method that the researcher use in this thesis is the Juridical-Normative Legal Method. Therefore, the researcher conclude that the results of this analysis are a news aggregator is a news portal that does not produce its own news, but instead collaborates with various online media to provide news content and if a dispute occurs then it can only be resolved by civil law or criminal law and cannot by press law.
