Information about media organizations penalized by RTÜK.

The Radio and Television Supreme Council (RTÜK) has made significant decisions regarding media monitoring. In today's meeting, various channels were penalized.

RTÜK imposed maximum administrative fines on channels like TELE1 and Halk TV for violations in their broadcasts. Notably, Merdan Yanardağ's statements regarding July 15 drew attention.

RTÜK imposed penalties on 7 channels. The statement indicated that sanctions were taken against programs targeting the Turkish family structure and violating privacy.

RTÜK made this decision based on the potential for broadcasts to incite division in society and attack personal rights. Some statements made on Halk TV were also criticized for similar reasons.

Additionally, digital platforms like Netflix and Spotify were penalized for their content. RTÜK stated that the content of these platforms contradicted the national and moral values of society.
