Data wasanalyzed using metaphor identification procedure, conceptual metaphor theory, and mixed metaphor. The results of the study show that there are 9 source domains, namely 1) TOLERANCE IS A CLOTHING, (2) TOLERANCE IS A SPACE/BUILDING, (3) TOLERANCE IS A HUMAN, (4) TOLERANCE IS A HUMAN BODY, (5) TOLERANCE IS A PLANT, and (6) TOLERANCE IS A THING, (7) TOLERANCE IS A BUSINESS COMMODITY, (8) TOLERANCE IS WAR, and (9) TOLERANCE IS A VEHICLE. Generally, the metaphor of tolerance in online Islamic mass media is classified into three tones: positive, negative, and neutral.Online Islamic mass media that have a positive tone are NU Online and Alif.id, mass media with a mixed tone (positive-neutral) is Suara Muhammadiyah and (positive-neutral-negative) is Hidayatullah.com, and mass media with a positive tone negative are Portal Islam, Suara Islam, VOA Islam, and Era Muslim.
