Meanwhile, the Newspaper struggled against some eminent journalists and writers of the time such as Ali Kemal, Refik Halit, Refi Cevat who supported a mandatory system and politicians like Ferit Pasha, who were against the National Struggle.

The Paper especially targeted Ali Kemal, who was the leader of those who opposed to the Anatolian movement by implying his Armenian origin with an editorial policy of alienation. This study deals with the political attitude and journalists working for the Newspaper, Alay, which also focused on the socio-economic problems of Istanbul during the armistice process through humour
