Abstract: This research focuses on news about revenge porn victims in Banten. This news was published on Suara.com, one of the online media in Indonesia. There are nine news stories published on Suara.com. Seven news stories were published on June 27, 2023, and two on July 14, 2023. This research discusses cases of revenge porn which often make women the victims. Several previous studies found that online media did not make revenge porn victims the ones who speak out or tell how revenge porn happened. However, online media made victims into objects and led readers to view revenge porn victims negatively. This research uses Sara Mills’ theory to dissect the position of subject and object and the position of author and reader. The results of this research show that victims of revenge porn in Banten have found a place to speak out in the Suara.com media. Suara.com includes the results of interviews with the victim’s family in each news story. The perpetrator’s family only spoke out in the first published news. Until the criminal was sentenced to prison for his actions, neither the perpetrator nor the perpetrator’s family uttered a word. It shows that the online media Suara.com is included in gender-sensitive media, so it does not only make victims the object of news.
