New media of the user-generated content type is the media with content created by the users of the new media themselves. YouTube is a new type of media, although the interactions offered are not as busy as other social media, the use of YouTube is quite effective in boosting the popularity of political communicators.

responding to various public curiosity. During the last few years in Indonesia, Youtube has also been widely used by political communicators to upload videos containing political statements or attitudes on actual issue.
