In this article, Russell's concept of logical atomism is also discussed. According to Russell, logical atomism maintains that language may be separated into atomic propositions and compound propositions when talking about words and language as a means of conveying information. The research was conducted using both qualitative and library-based techniques. The data utilized was taken from an Instagram post by the USSFeeds account, which disseminates the most recent news for everyone from youngsters to adults focusing on the international market. The researcher then analyzes it in terms of Russell's atomic propositions of logical atomism. Logical atomism is an ideology that holds that language may be divided into atomic propositions and compound propositions when discussing words and language as a carrier of information. Additionally, by adding the terms "and", “who”, “that” “or”, and etc these atomic assertions may be combined to make compound propositions. USSFeed captions that are analyzed using the concept of logical atomism must be added with conjunctions to clarify the intended reference. This study aims to analyze captions from USSFeed using logical atomism to describe the essence of language and reality to ensure that the information provided to citizens has informative, effective, directive, ceremonial, and performative functions using Bertrand Russell's logical atomism theory. Keywords: Logical atomism, Bertrand Russell, USSFeed. INTRODUCTION In this era, the mass media underwent a number of advancements in line with the advancement of the times. Mass media has grown significantly over time. These developments resulted in a new technology called social media, a digital platform that can be accessed via smartphones. At the societal level, mass media communication is no longer the only form of communication; instead, new technologies have emerged, including possible communication backup networks (Dennis McQuail, 2011). The daily consumption of information has become a basic human necessity. In order to gather information as soon as possible, many news outlets are presently competing. The timeliness of information is more important than its correctness in this case. Instead of depending on facts, they are more likely to rely on the inhabitants' passion, which might lead to captions that lacking the correct linguistic information. As recently said, language serves as a tool for informational, expressive, directive, ceremonial, and performative purposes. Language presents arguments and states the informational substance of communication (describes the world of facts or reality). Russell (2010) concluded that common language cannot serve as an appropriate point of analysis.
