Unbiased media is the one which people are willing to find, but which is hard to find. It is unfortunately impossible in today’s world to have a media outlet, which does not reflect the ideas of its owner. Turkish media has lots of examples of this bias, since there are lots of privatized media foundations. There is only one channel, which is regulated by the government. TRT is the one in which we don’t seem lots of propagandas. However, it also is avoiding giving any ‘threatening’ information about the leading political party. So, even the most ‘diluted’ TV Channel doesn’t inform citizens accurately, it is hard to learn the reality from the media. We as citizens prefer the unbiased news and information to be able to have and create our own ideas without any prejudices. Since my childhood I’ve always heard about the discussions about the effects of the leading party and the politic views. It seemed insignificant to me a few years ago but now I find it very repugnant. As a developing country Turkey needs objective media establishments to help the illiterate society to have an idea about the reality and what’s going on in the country. Media should educate people and open the curtain of illiteracy that blinds them instead of giving the strained truth.
