Summary
The focus of my story, under Orhan’s sway, was shifting to how journalists within Turkey viewed the crackdown on Gülen Movement media differently than their international counterparts. Barış’s indictment of Zaman contrasted dramatically with the empathetic coverage of the newspaper’s plight in the United States and Europe, where Zaman’s seizure had yielded headlines like “The Death Blow to Turkish Media” and “This Is the End of Journalism in Turkey” (Arjomand 2016b).
