where planning in online media will be the guideline for every leader in

information that will be disseminated through Facebook sangalu.com. Then the
information/news is arranged in a coherent, structured, and uncomplicated
manner so that the intent and purpose of the information/news conveyed will be
easily understood by the readers.

which comes from the Greek language with the root word " organon " which means a tool, or
the process of grouping activities to achieve certain goals carried out by a

mainly related to information after it is made, and is forwarded to the

processing and disseminating news. Therefore, the central point here is the
issue of how news is processed and disseminated. (Aswad Ishak, 2012). This news is communicated to the public from the

Therefore, the Facebook social media used by sangalu.com media makes it very
easy for the public to get information. (Alim, Retnawati, & Syamsuddin, 2018)
Publishing information through Facebook is more interesting than print media.

be accompanied by interesting features, such as images or videos that are
synchronized with the news feed that will be published. People who use Facebook
to find information can provide convenience as expressed by Davis where someone
believes that the use of information technology is an easy thing that does not
require hard effort from the wearer. (Agung Budi Prasetyo, 2014).
