INTRODUCTION
Several discussions on the position of women as "the others" can be traced into the statement of Simone de Beauvoir in his book, The Second Sex and inspired Kristeva and Butler to develop the third wave of feminism (Butler, 1988;Card, 2003;De Beauvoir, 2016;Hutchings, 2009; "Julia Kristeva and literary theory," 2013). This article will discuss how women as "the others" create domination and power to become the media darling. This article specifically discusses Khofifah Indar Parawansa, former Indonesian women minister who served as Minister of Social Affair and now elected as the first women governor of East Java.
Previous research conducted by Shaham (2018) shows the debate of Muslim societies about women's participation in politics, especially in Muslim majority countries. Rinaldo (2010) on her research of two Indonesian Islamic organization found that the rising pietism of Indonesian Muslims has a strong correlation with the practicing of politics. The pious Indonesian Muslim women consider family as the priority than public activities such as becoming a politician (Rinaldo, 2010;Sakai & Fauzia, 2016).
Comparing with other Southeast Asian countries, Indonesia is considered as the leader of women's participation in politics (Al Uyun, 2014;Fleschenberg, 2011;Good, 2004). The highest political supreme of Indonesia, the president seat, in 2001 has been taken by women, Megawati Sukarnoputri, a daughter of Indonesian founding father, Sukarno. Compared with other Southeast Asian countries, only Indonesia (Megawati Sukarnoputri), Philippines (Cory Aquino and Gloria Arroyo), and Thailand (Yingluck Shinawatra) who had women as their head of government (Executive). This shows the acceleration of women's awareness and opportunity to reach the highest position in politics.
The concept of otherness on women studies has been criticized by Butler (1990) about the flexibility of "gender". Women and femininity are not always interlinked with each other, and become a woman in politics can be considered as a "masculinity" act ( Women considered as incapable to work in "hard" political areas (Collins, 2006;Cumley, 2014). The increase of women politicians has significantly changed the tendency of media reports. Previously, the media focused on men politicians and their masculinity. After the increase in the number of women politicians, the focus shifted towards women who entered practical politics. Politics area which was claimed a masculine area (active and thinker) is opened by the women (alleged in feminine, soft, and feeling).

METHODOLOGY AND MATERIALS
Digital Discourse Analysis as Tools to Understand Netizen's Act Society 5.0 as a transformation of societal systems in digital society brings plenty of challenges (Wang, Li, Yuan, Ye, & Wang, 2016). On one hand, due to the uncertainty, diversity, and complexity of human behaviors, human-in-the-loop systems bring new problems for system modeling; on another hand, the immense big data introduces both opportunities for the government to promote timely societal management and public services, and difficulties to discover the targeted information rapidly and accurately (Wang et  This rapid society changing impacted on how the scholar researches people and their perception of politics and politician. Discourse and political discourse on society are not only explained by critical discourse analysis. People are creating meaning through dyadic communication with like, comment, and share the online news or status on social media. Facing the term of discourse also became a subject of multidisciplinary discussions and to gain relevance in linguistics (Gredel, 2017).

Multimodal Analysis of Digital Practice and Material
The key to implementing the analysis of a conversation on the internet are using the multimodal analysis (Herring, 2013). Using the pattern of Herring, the researcher has used the data from Facebook commentary section on the official web page of Detik.com, the pioneer of Indonesia's online news site from 1 January -31 December 2017.

RESULTS AND FINDINGS Women Politician: Tracing Privilege from Man
Women became a subject of Politics in Southeast Asia can be traced from how women sometimes used as "tools" from man to control politics or to reach recognition from the other male politicians (See David, 1989;Eagly, 1995 Netizens with political preferences towards Jokowi, Indonesian running president, 92% of them tend to approve Khofifah acts for seeking legitimation from the Kyaieven when she still served as Minister of Social Affair. Different reactions from a netizen who associated his personal political preferences towards the oppositions, 100% of the questions the Khofifah's motive as active minister visiting Kyai in East Java. About 37% of the comment section from netizen affiliated with opposition attacked Khofifah's identity as women. Politics is still considered as man arena, shown by acts of Khofifah who asked legitimation from Kyai. She considered as powerless and renegotiating power with a man (Kyai) to get power and support from the man. Privilege from a man also The picture above shows Khofifah as the maudlin woman who hugs women as a victim and looked crying. This picture, in relation to the title, creates a perception in the reader's mind that Khofifah as women minister looks maudlin. The journalist put a lead on the news does the same accentuation style with Khofifah's position as minister re-mentioned again on the lead. The reporter used the word: "takkuasamenahan air mata-Can't hold her tears" for highlighting Khofifah acts as a minister who cried. Khofifah described as a weak minister, powerless with her gender as woman who cannot handle her emotions.
In the body text of news, the reporters still focusing on how maudlin Khofifah is. Press report Khofifah's crying when she leads the pray for the boy who killed in a cupboard. In the relation between Susi's news and Khofifah's news, they have a similarity: online media portrays the women minister as a weak person. With much "crying" word, the journalist wants to create and infiltrate the reader's mind the idea of women in politics (ministry) is a weak person.
This fact indicated our media have the main idea to ask: women are not suitable to work in politics. Politics becomes a masculine area, not suitable for the feminine person. Media still used traditional conventional packaging to portray women as the politician in the media, women still in her weakness completed with her attribute glossy lip, shining hair and another domestic quality.
On another way, netizen focusing discussion on the comment section on how maudlin is Khofifah as a minister with a more abusive word: Menteri Cengeng -Mawkish Minister, to offend Khofifah's news reporting. A netizen who is anonymous became powerful to judge women in their misogynistic view and perspective.
Women as a gender identity still experienced oppression in media construction. Active masculinity reinforced by patriarchal culture in the media industry makes femininity and women powerless when facing the onslaught of the construction.

CONCLUSION
The effort of creating media based on sensitivity gender must be accelerated to make sure the rapidity of sustainable women participation in politics. Women as a politician can't be labeled as unnatural or uncommon, in one way she got empowerment but on another side, she became powerless because of the misogynistic perspective of netizen. Politics may not refer to masculinity, but if the media still reports women politician as a weak person, it will strengthen the stereotype.
The rapid trend of viewers and readers of online news in Indonesia can be summed up as the future of the media industry that concerns us. The future is how media do not become the judge for women, and educating netizens with true discourse and more women affirmations based on sensitive gender perspective.
