                Turkish and international media bodies have voiced outrage over the assault on Turkish environmental journalist Hakan Tosun – who died from his injuries on Wednesday – amid concern that he was targete...
            
        
    
    
            Journalism is not a crime, telling the truth to those in power is a public service! Hakan's murder must not be allowed to fade into the silence of impunity. Justice must be served. The truth must come out. I repeat once again that all responsible parties must be held accountable.

            Every witness statement, every security camera recording the streets around where #HakanTosun was assaulted, every chain of evidence must be examined with the utmost rigour to enlighten this crime, this assault on #MediaFreedom!

            I call on the authorities to conduct a comprehensive, independent and through investigation into all allegations around #HakanTosun murder case. This investigation must include the possibility of hired assailants and the suppression or manipulation of evidence.

            The circumstances surrounding #HakanTosun's final moments raise serious and unavoidable questions:
Why was there so little transparency on the case, what happened to his devices, and who orchestrated this attack?

                “Foreign Agent” Draft Bill in Turkey - Daktilo 1984
                Turkey has a long list of legislation and regulations in place that pose a threat to media freedom, the right to access information, and free expression in the country. The legislative processes in th...
            
        
    
    
            Even though it seems to have fallen off the agenda for now in Turkey, the foreign influence agent draft bill remains a risk for civil society and independent media.
I have written an article for @daktilo1984.bsky.social about the state of the draft bill in Turkey.

            Bir basın kuruluşunun arşivinin komple silinmesi, tarihin yok edilmesidir. Maalesef ele geçirilen medya kuruluşlarında bunu sıklıkla gördük son 15 yılda. Arşivi silinmeyenler için de tekil içeriklere erişim engeli / içerik kaldırma emirleri uygulandı.

                Attempt to block witnessing in Turkey
                When all three pillars are united -courts, police, media regulator- to suppress media freedom, the result becomes a suffocating environment where truth and facts become criminal.
            
        
    
    
            My latest piece based on the MFRR Monitoring Report for @fayn.press: Attempt to Block Witnessing in Turkey
Police, courts and regulators join forces to silence journalists. But witnessing is resistance —  truth survives only if we keep telling it.

Post's decision is not about one journalist, it’s about silencing critical voices and weakening #MediaFreedom.

            Even with running in between flights it is quite tiresome catching a connection flight in Istanbul sometimes; the place is huge and terribly designed/planned. It could even have been the case they would simply miss it while heading to the gate, even if no one had any health issue.

                After the last update, Grok's answers became offensive and led to a restriction in Türkiye. Honestly, before the update, I was using Grok to get relatively objective information, but not now at all.
