Özet:

The Turkish press has been struggling to freely declare its voice throughout history. The struggle for existence, from the last periods of the Ottoman, until the establishment of the republic and the one-party period of power, was the main topic of the press in every period. The strongest of the steps that the Turkish press made in a "free language" was the transition to a multi-party political life. The Democratic Party, which managed to become the strongest political figure of this period, even in the early times of its establishment had raised a great excitement among the people. This excitement did not remain in the presence of a single public, it was spread to all the crowds with the opening of the press. Because the Democratic Party, which the Turkish Press, who was deceived by the oppressive regimes of the single party politics, was seen as a rescue, had put in the opposition period the constructive statements that supported the freedom of the press. But his attempt to take the press under control from the early years of his power has led to the flourishing dreams of ‘total independent press’. In the subsequent periods of his power, the Democratic Party power, which increased pressure, has tried to complete the control of the Turkish Press with the new press laws it has issued, and to end the publications against the government. The Democratic Party's power, with its oppressive attitude towards the whole country, officially ended with a military coup on 27 May 1960, after a series of protests which began with its university actions.
