About Zaman TV
Zaman Gazetesi is a Turkish newspaper that was established in 1986. The newspaper is known for its coverage of national and international news, politics, economics, culture, and sports. It has been published in both print and online formats, and its website is one of the most popular news websites in Turkey.
The newspaper has a long history of independent journalism and has won numerous awards for its reporting. However, in recent years, the newspaper has faced significant challenges. In 2016, the Turkish government took control of the newspaper, accusing it of having links to the Gülen movement, a religious and social movement that the government has designated as a terrorist organization.
Following the government takeover, the newspaper's editorial stance changed significantly, with much of its critical coverage of the government being replaced by more supportive reporting. As a result, many of the newspaper's journalists and staff members resigned or were dismissed, and the newspaper's readership declined significantly.
Despite these challenges, Zaman Gazetesi remains an important source of news and information in Turkey. The newspaper continues to cover a wide range of topics, including politics, economics, culture, and sports, and its website remains one of the most popular news websites in the country. However, its editorial stance has shifted significantly since the government takeover and its independence and credibility have been called into question by many critics.
