Özet:

The evolution of internet technology has played decisive role in changing traditional journalistic practices and has brought about various transformations in the communication habits of the individual. In online journalism, where the basic rules of journalism are not adhered to, traditional principles have been replaced by new criteria. The collection, verification and writing processes of the news have been shaped according to the conditions of technology in the medium where transformations are experienced both in terms of content and form. At this stage, it can be said that there are irregularities in the writing of news that should be created in a certain system. On the basis of the problem in question, in this study, newspapers on the internet were analysed within the framework of the rules for writing news. In this context, we looked at news values, titles, writing techniques, visual elements and content errors. The universe of the study consists of online journals in Turkey. In that sense, the most followed internet newspapers Ensonhaber, Hürriyet, Milliyet, Sözcü, Mynet were chosen as the sample. The study limited itself to a review of randomly selected news published between 11.06.2021 and 21.06.2021. In this sense, it is about revealing whether or not the spelling rules are followed in the news discussed. In addition, drawing attention to irregularities in internet journals and incorrect spelling in news are among the main goals. As a result, it was found that newspapers did not respect rules such as title, writing technique and information values. Furthermore, the publications were found to be unethical in terms of content. Sensational statements, inaccurate and distorted content were highlighted in posts where the rules were ignored to get more clicks and ads. In addition, it is possible to say that the concerns of the newspapers to spread the news quickly and to receive more advertisements are effective in not paying attention to the spelling rules.
