RTÜK Sends Records of 6 Channels to Prosecutor's Office

The Radio and Television Supreme Council (RTÜK) has sent the records of 6 television channels to the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office regarding the legitimacy of the Gezi Park events.
These channels include Cem TV, Flash TV, Halk TV, Kanal D, Fox TV, and Samanyolu Haber. RTÜK will review their broadcasts.

Following the Gezi Park events, the Istanbul Chief Public Prosecutor's Office requested recordings from RTÜK, claiming that some media outlets were propagating these events.
These developments have reignited discussions about media oversight and freedoms in Turkey. RTÜK's actions are seen as a sign of pressure on the media.

In conclusion, RTÜK's oversight actions serve as an important example of how the media landscape in Turkey is shaped. The balance between media freedom and oversight has always been a contentious issue.
