Over the past decade, our country has managed to overcome its all chronic problems by introducing many historic reforms in a wide range of fields, from foreign policy and education to justice in line with the EU membership criteria. Murat KARAKAYA Director General Having achieved to become one of the 15 biggest economies in the world owing to its economic moves, Turkey is now a gradually prospering country with a stable course of economic growth. Thanks to the legal and judicial reforms, level of democracy has risen and all the problems concerning individual rights and freedoms have been removed. Today’s Turkey is a country of which people enjoy freedoms of expression and travel and do not meet any prohibition or restriction. Accordingly, Turkey has a clear guarantee for democracy with its free and independent media sector which is mainly built on the private corporations along with two public institutions, the Anadolu Agency and the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation, providing a great competitive advantage and adaptive capacity to technological innovations. With a deep-rooted media tradition, Turkish public administration is conducted with a great sense of responsibility for making legislative regulations to address the needs of the media sector. All the impediments has been removed, press freedom has been guaranteed and foreign investment share in the sector has been increased through some legislative efforts including the Press Law based on a widespread consensus, the improvements made on Turkish Criminal Law, and a law governing radio-television broadcasting. Media sector is provided with technical and financial support through the such media organizations as the Director General of Press and Information and the Press Advertising Institution. Currently, Turkish media has a dynamic and vibrant climate with nearly 6800 newspapers and magazines, and totally 263 television outlets and 1058 radio stations. Thus, the work in your hands, “Turkish Media at a Glance”, aims at giving insight into a century-long media adventure dating from Ottoman era till today as well as taking a detailed picture of today’s media as a fast-changing sector in Turkey. So, I believe and hope that this work will not only be a reference source for both national and foreign journalists, scholars, students and the others concerned about the media but also an inspiration to similar works in the future. 6 TURKISH MEDIA AT A GLANCE Turkish media embarked on its long adventure in a small printing house in İstanbul, in 1727 and since then, it has proceeded at dizzying speed despite all the ups and downs till today. Having acted as an initiator of democratization movement and then becoming people’s voice during the national struggle, Turkish media has obtained a more liberal atmosphere with the establishment of the Republic. Today, Turkey has an explosive media sector with about 6800 papers and magazines, 263 TV channels and 1058 radio stations. Of these papers and magazines; approximately 60 % is local, 5 % regional and 36 % national. Daily papers have got 88 % share in the total annual circulation. Moreover, the Official Gazette, issued by the state for announcing the new legislation and making other official announcements, has been published since 1920 when it was issued under the title of Ceride-i Resmiye. It has been in the stage under the name of Resmi Gazete since 1928. In Turkey, TV broadcasting has recently come further and further to the forefront, exceeding the printed media in terms of its scope and economical dimension. Today great majority of 18 million households reached by broadcasts can access multi-channel platforms. In recent years particularly the productions by TV serial sector have promoted Turkey to the rank of the most important content producers in the world. Turkey, as a party to The European Convention on Transfrontier Television and EU Audio-Visual Media Services Directive, guarantees the freedom of expression in its Press Law. Share of foreign capital in the Turkish media has been maximized to 50% thanks to the adoption of a new Radio and Television Law (RTUK Law) prepared in pursuant to the EU Acquis. Following these developments, world’s prominent media groups, such as Times Warner, News Corp., Al-Jazeera and GB Times, have launched into large-scale investments in Turkey. TRT has recently added a new channel to its thematic channels covering news, music, children, documentary, sports and education based on the concept of public service broadcasting and started Kurdish TV broadcasting, which was previously banned. Besides its 24 hours Arabic language channel, TRT today meets with the audience through a certain broadcast streaming in multiple languages including Bosnian, Kazakh, Georgian, Greek, German and Romanian during a certain broadcast streaming. In Turkey, HDTV broadcasts via Türksat satellite are also available as well as transmissions in an analog-terrestrial mode. DIGITURK, one of the digital satellite subscription based platforms, has an estimated reach of 3.3 million households, while D-SMART reaches 1,7 million. There are 1,2 million analog cable TV subscribers and 130 thousand digital TV subscribers. Besides, there is an IPTV service launched by Turk Telekom in Turkey. Audience can easily watch many national, local and international broadcasts. Having made a breakthrough in recent years, the Anadolu Agency (AA), one of the world’s oldest agencies, has become among ten big agencies. The Agency started to restructure itself in the Balkans, Arab countries, Caucasia and the Central Asia with a view to ranking one of the five big agencies in its centenary. Multiplication of actors within a sector, which has witnessed the advertisement revenues up to 2,5 billion USD and a cutthroat competition, creates a free and pluralistic climate which is open to opinions and ideologies of all descriptions. Almost half of the population has access to the Internet. With over 32 million registered users, Turkey ranks as the seventh country among others in terms of Internet usage. Moreover, given its nearly 8 million Twitter users, video sharing sites also receive a great deal of attention in our country. Each year 80 or 100 new serials are released on Turkish TV stations. There is also a strong foreign demand for TV productions including mostly the prime-time soap operas. In 2011 alone the revenue recorded from serial exports to the countries ranging from South America to the Middle East and the Balkans to Africa was over 60 million USD. 7 HISTORY OF TURKISH MEDIA 1727-1839 PRE-TANZIMAT PERIOD 14-16 December, 1727 the first Turkish printing press was established.

Media sector has been on an unplanned and uncontrolled growth trend since the first private TV channel began its broadcasting life in 1990 and state monopoly over the visual broadcasting sector was broken. Having structured as such the media sector got a severe blow from the 2000-2001 financial crisis. As a result, some media patrons of the failed banks went bankrupt, creating a grave unemployment wave in the media sector. Then, Saving Deposits Insurance Fund of Turkey seized some media companies for their failed banks. And in parallel with this process a new period began for the media ownership. Thanks to the new legal regulations, foreign shareholders and those investment groups which were previously engaged in various irrelevant fields turned towards the media sector. Thus, the ownership structure of Turkish media started to reshape with the advent of new entrepreneurs. Today’s prominent media organizations are also the leading investment groups of the country. Media groups are entering into joint ventures with foreign media companies both at home and abroad. On the other hand, foreign companies can also own media organs in Turkey. For example, News Corporation & Atlantic Records purchased TGRT and now continue its broadcasting under the name of Fox TV. Turkish Broadcasting Law No. 6112 dated 2011 raised the maximum share of foreign investment in a private media organ up to 50%. As a result of this certain media companies such as Qatar-financed Al-Jazeera and Chinafinanced GB Times embarked on making investments in the fields of television and radio broadcastings, and webcasting in Turkey.

As the use of Internet and mobile devices has become widespread, classical approach of publishing and broadcasting via newspapers and TV screens has started to change. Mobile devices are alternative channels joining previously widespread communications medium. Social media has turned into the most effective communications channel of the world in a short time thanks to its networking sites with capacity of informing, entertaining and influencing the masses. Social Media is keeping up with global progress in Turkey where web and mobile communication are widespread. Given the size of active social networking users, Turkey outdistanced many countries in social media use. This great interest leads to many digital agencies to launch, while heading conventional media to social media.

Since then, thousands of periodicals, newspapers and cartoons have been published, mirroring the Turkish humor. Akbaba, Marko Paşa, Karakedi, Taş, Dolmuş, Gırgır, Fırt, Ustura, Leman, Penguen and Uykusuz are the most important humor magazines. In Turkey, humor magazine publishing owes its present popularity to the cartoonist Oğuz Aral who is founder and chief editor of Gırgır. He made Gırgır the third largest magazine of the world by circulation over 500 thousand. Following Gırgır with a large readership especially among the youth, number of humor journals proliferated. According to 2012 data, Uykusuz and Penguen are two top-selling humor journals. Current humor publishing is carried out with weekly humor magazines rather than the cartoon pages of daily newspapers.

Furthermore, today this sector is well positioned to launch homemade TV productions with global competitiveness and nearly all of the Turkish TV channels can offer homemade production to their viewers. For the last few years, 80 or 100 new homemade productions have appeared on the scene annually. Production quality has moved Turkish serials to the international markets. Today Turkey is among the most important content-production centers. Turkish serials became famous in the world ranging from Middle East to Balkans and South America. As Turkish serials have gained popularity in those countries where they are featured on TV, demand for them has increased day by day and Turkish artists gained ground in being a world star as well. For instance, the last episode of Gümüş, a serial which is shown as among the most popular ones, was watched by 84 million people across the Middle East. According to the data given by Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Turkey exported totally 10,500 hours of serials and contents to many countries across in the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans by the end of 2011. Thanks to this exportation, the yield was over 60 million USD.
