I was very surprised and disappointed that RTÜK imposed a program suspension and administrative fines on our channel 5 times due to expressions used by CHP Mersin MP Ali Mahir Başarır on Actual Fikri Ne program.
At first, Haberturk viewers should know that all of our people, including the fact that this is a criminal sanction imposed on Turkey’s democracy because …
We were punished for inviting guests from different political lines following a democratic and pluralistic editorial policy …
By fulfilling the responsibility of a free and impartial news channel, we were punished for not taking orders from any political party …
We were punished for reporting solely for the public good, not acting under the guidance of those who try to design the media for their personal interests …
In an environment where the media is increasingly polarized and newspapers and televisions act only with certain ideological agendas, we were punished for not compromising our independent line …
And of course in the EU audience group Because we are the most viewed news channel So we were punished for our success!
Otherwise, while program moderator Eren Eğilmez did his part for responsible broadcasting, he insistently warned CHP MP Ali Mahir Başarır for his words exceeding his intention and Başarır corrected his words on the live broadcast …
Habertürk TV management “The relevant explanations do not reflect the opinions of our institution. We reject and firmly oppose any declaration directed at the dignity and worth of our army ”…
RTÜK would not have signed such an incomprehensible and unfair decision.
I am proud to work on a channel that keeps its transmission line fair without getting caught in the seasonal winds.
Regardless, we will continue to post correct and principled.
In the face of this unjust punishment, I invite all our people to watch more Habertürk television to support free and fair broadcasting.
