Compare different Turkish media outlets (newpapers, television stations, magazines, radio stations)– does the owner have an influence on the content? (who is the owner- is the ideology of the owner reflected in the content?) http://ercu.edublogs.org/2009/01/06/2-marks-6-compare-different-turkish-media-outlets-newpapers-television-stations-magazines-radio-stations%e2%80%93-does-the-owner-have-an-influence-on-the-content-who-is-the-owner-is-the-ideo/ http://ercu.edublogs.org/2009/01/06/2-marks-6-compare-different-turkish-media-outlets-newpapers-television-stations-magazines-radio-stations%e2%80%93-does-the-owner-have-an-influence-on-the-content-who-is-the-owner-is-the-ideo/#comments Tue, 06 Jan 2009 19:13:00 +0000 ercu http://ercu.edublogs.org/?p=12

Since the last years of 1980’s, media in Turkey has become a significant part in people daily lifes with the appearing new private television channels. Because these channels provide people new entertainment programmes as a result they easily gained these people’s attraction to their tv’s. On the other hand, newspaper propaganda always had happened but tv is much more stronger and much more cruel than other media outlets. In my opinion, every owner has the influence on their media agency. For instance; there was an argument between one of the media boss and Turkish Prime Minister. As a result, they all used their media power. Disstresfully, they made their propaganda even in their TV’s news program!. In newspaper’s, same thing has happened too. They can affect their TV channels so why not they did not affect their newspaper Owing to the fact that; I shocked when I saw media boss’ words with big puntos as a headline in one of honourable accepted by society newspapers. On the other hand, media bosses can affect the position of columnists. Whenever columnists do not write media boss’ opinions, boses could fire them. The example of Emin Çölaşan’s rush from Hürriyet completely fits this situation. He was fired because of his spectations about the media boss.

In this film there is a huge family named Corleone Family. All of the family members live together in a big house and the family leader Don Corleone holds the power of the whole family.As so, He is respected by other family members, naturally, except his mother, he has a different relatioship with his mother and he kiss his mother’s hand if necessary. The idea of marriage is conceptualized well in the film. Moreover, Don’s son Michael comed with her girlfriend to his house and his father behaved comprehensive to the idea of marriage. The family is the significant part of this film because the main topic of film so called ‘mafia’ is based on family roots. Furthermore, problems in family was solved by Don Corleone because he was the big man and he had an influence on everybody. Problems about Michael and his wife affected whole family because each member has a close relationship with another member of family. Moreover, there is a divorce between Michael Corleone and his wife Connie. The most affected one from this divorce are Connie and children. Michael were not affected too much because he had serious mafia works in Sicilia and also he got married in there and no one knowed this marriage since the appreance of the news about Michael’s died old wife.
