Abstract
This research analyzed presupposition triggers in editorial news in order to find out the type of presuppositions used as well as the frequency. In this research, the researcher analyzed the type of presupposition trigger found in editorial news in The New York Times and The Jakarta Post. The researcher used qualitative research in order to answer the research problems. The data were 4 editorial news. 2 editorials culled from The New York Times and 2 other culled from The Jakarta Post. In data collection, the researcher took editorial news that discussed refuge crisis. Based on the 6 type of presupposition trigger by Yule (2010), The New York Times had employed only 5 of them, they are existential, factive, non-factive, lexical, and counter factual. Meanwhile, the Jakarta Post had employed all of the types including structural presupposition which did not found in The New York Times. Existential presupposition is the most frequently used in both editorial newspapers due to the fact that it consists of simple construction including noun phrase, possessive’s construction, and nominalization. It is also because existential presupposition is the easiest tool for the writers to give information readily acknowledged by the readers. Otherwise, the less employed presupposition trigger in both editorial newspaper is structural which indicated through the wh-questions. The using of presupposition is important to consciously or unconsciously influencing the viewers or readers in understanding particular information. The researcher suggests the next researcher who wants to conduct a similar research use another theory or object.
