This study examines how Indonesias mainstream digital media: Kompas, DetikNews, and CNN Indonesia, constructed policy discourse on the Rempang Eco City development between January 2023 and May 2025. Employing Discourse Network Analysis (DNA), the research maps relational patterns among actors, concepts, and positions extracted from news articles, providing a dual analytical lens: structural and interpretive. The findings reveal two dominant discourse coalitions: one promoting economic development and investment legitimacy, and the other emphasizing human rights, environmental risks, and Indigenous resistance. These coalitions reflect discursive polarization within public debates on national strategic projects. Conceptually, the study contributes to Communication Policy Theory by situating media discourse as a site of symbolic governance, where policy legitimacy is negotiated through competing narratives. Methodologically, it demonstrates the utility of DNA in capturing actor alignments, discursive clusters, and coalition dynamics in fragmented media environments. The study underscores the critical role of digital news platforms not only as information intermediaries but as active agents shaping public perception and policy coherence. This research highlights the need for more communication-centered approaches in analyzing policy controversies and offers a replicable framework for mapping discursive power in development conflicts.

The study reveals polarized discourse coalitions surrounding the Rempang Eco City policy, with one emphasizing economic development and the other prioritizing human rights and environmental concerns.This polarization highlights the contested nature of policy legitimacy in Indonesias digital public sphere.The research demonstrates the effectiveness of Discourse Network Analysis (DNA) combined with Communication Policy Theory in mapping these complex dynamics and understanding the role of media in shaping public perception.Ultimately, the findings underscore the need for communication-centered approaches to analyze policy controversies and navigate the challenges of discursive power in development conflicts.

Penelitian lanjutan perlu dilakukan untuk mengeksplorasi peran media sosial dan platform digital lainnya dalam membentuk opini publik terkait proyek Rempang Eco City, melampaui analisis terhadap media mainstream. Studi komparatif dapat dilakukan dengan membandingkan framing isu Rempang di berbagai media, termasuk media lokal dan internasional, untuk memahami bagaimana narasi yang berbeda bersaing dan berinteraksi. Lebih lanjut, penelitian kualitatif mendalam, seperti wawancara dengan masyarakat terdampak, aktivis, dan pembuat kebijakan, dapat memberikan pemahaman yang lebih nuanced tentang pengalaman dan perspektif yang berbeda terkait proyek ini, serta mengidentifikasi potensi solusi yang lebih inklusif dan berkelanjutan. Penelitian ini harus mempertimbangkan dampak jangka panjang dari proyek Rempang Eco City terhadap lingkungan, sosial, dan budaya masyarakat setempat, serta mengevaluasi efektivitas kebijakan yang diterapkan untuk mitigasi risiko dan perlindungan hak-hak masyarakat.
