Founded in 1996, Liputan 6 originally started as a television news program in Indonesia with Riza Primadi serving as its first news anchor. The idea was to create a news source that lived up to its slogan, "Current, Sharp, and Trusted," which eventually led to the launch of their online portal, Liputan6.com, in August 2000 to celebrate the channel's 10th anniversary. Today, the site is owned and operated by KapanLagi Youniverse (KLY), continuing its mission to provide news across various digital platforms Exploring Knowledge, Taste, and Innovation. Today, En Liputan6 covers a wide range of topics, including national and international politics, business, sports, and entertainment. They are based in Jakarta, Indonesia, and have expanded their reach to include technology, lifestyle, and even trivia sections that feature everything from celebrity quotes to gaming news. Their English-language site, en.liputan6.com, helps bring these stories to a global audience while maintaining their reputation as a major player in the Indonesian media landscape. One interesting fact: A unique tradition of Liputan 6 is how they address their audience; since their very first broadcast in 1996, anchors have used the word "Saudara" (meaning brother or sister) to greet viewers instead of the more formal Indonesian word for "viewer," which was intended to create a more personal connection with the public.
