Utilizing the analysis framing model by Robert N. Entman, this paper examines four devices unit of analysis: define problems, diagnose causes, make moral judgments, and treatment recommendation. The paper shows that Tempo is criticizing Ahok discretion.  Tempo urges KPK to investigate the accuracy of Ahok discretion, because there is no legal foundation and the source of the problem of bribery reclamation cases.
