among them are and not affected by time (day or
night). Social media has a big impact on the lives of
its users. A user at first time "unknown" can

21st century is a century of technology and
information, where humanity enters the era of
"millennium information. This era is marked by
information which is disseminated through mass
media and social media will significantly determine

tendency for some people, especially some Muslims,
in the era of information today is faced at changing
in values. Now days, it seems as if what is being
reported by mass media or social media is
considered correct. Social reality has narrowed its
meaning to "media reality" as what mass media
broadcasts. The tendency of narrowing this meaning
except as awareness also increases the social
responsibility of the mass media (Iftitah Jafar
,2017
)
