Tahun 2017, pemilihan Kepala Daerah (Pilkada) diadakan serentak di Indonesia yaitu pemilihan pemimpin daerah di tujuh provinsi, 18 kota dan 76 kabupaten. Namun, pemilihan Gubernur (Pilgub) DKI Jakarta menjadi satu-satunya Pilkada yang paling menyita perhatian publik. Isu SARA (Suku, Agama, dan Ras) menjadi sentral opini publik yang terbangun di tengah ketatnya persaingan tiga pasangan calon Gubernur dan calon Wakil Gubernur. Media massa turut mempengaruhi opini publik, termasuk media dalam jaringan (daring). Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisa obyektivitas berita pada media daring, khususnya Detiknews. Penelitian ini merupakan analisis isi kuantitatif dengan data primer berupa kompilasi berita dengan kata kunci “Pilkada DKI Jakarta” pada Detiksearch selama 26 Oktober 2016 hingga 11 Februari 2017. Kerangka obyektivitas Westerståhl (1983) dengan menggunakan dua variabel: faktualitas dan impartialitas. Analisis data statistik dilakukan secara deskriptif. Secara faktualitas, penyajian fakta baik sosiologi maupun psikologis cukup berimbang. Kelengkapan berita (unsur 5W+1H) pun tinggi. Sementara secara impartialitas, keberimbangan Detiknews dalam menampilkan dua sisi (cover both sides) cukup rendah. Meski demikian, Detiknews masih menjaga tingkat netralitas dalam pemberitaannya.
