In Turkey, a different understanding of the media appeared about 16 years. Those who are in favor of power, those who oppose the power. Those who support the government show a blind, deaf, mute structure that everything the government does. Yet there is opposition in the essence of the media. There is somehow to see the facts, transfer what they see to the public, and shape the public in the right, fair way. Where does the opposition of the media come from? Of course, the right to criticism. In a society, if those who share power and power have abolished the right to criticism, it is not possible for the society to grow in equitable terms and to walk with all institutions and organizations. In this context, the use of the right of criticism by the media will pave the way for power to make self-criticism.
If the media cannot use the right of criticism, if the power has begun to attract all of what it has done, if it continues to play the three monkeys that the power cannot do, then the right to raise public awareness in a correct and equitable way is prevented. Democracy is considered to be the fourth power in established societies after the media, legislative-executive and judiciary. But democracy hormones such as Turkey, by other forces in the political life is often intervened in the country's media, most of the time the legislative, executive and the judiciary can be overtaken.
The fact that the media, which is the main job of informing and informing the public, has reached this power is due to the excessive importance given to the media by the community engineers. The dominant paradigm and deep powers that want to shape society around a world they desire, use the media as a lever and intervene in the minds, cultural and social structures of people. Media is using this peak power that is endowed with the top hill, the dominant paradigm with media barons is turning to other hand in arm to hand.
This situation leads to the interaction of the media barons and the politics and the cumbersome bureaucracy.
As you know, Turkey has currently many kinds of large print runs in each category except newspapers and television ownership in the position of owners of media organs. These businesses need to be carried out and the interests of the media bosses who are javelin in different sectors need to be protected. Seen from this perspective that identifies themselves as a free pencil, Turkey, claiming that they contribute to the democratic life is of no relevance to what they tell the media kalemşör. Because their work is nothing but water to the resources that feed their bosses' jobs in different sectors. As we have stated above, the media can not contribute to democracy as much as it is the lever of the form of social form of the dominant paradigm, which imposes a world view into society, what we say, you will think like us, you will dress like us. First of all, society should be considered as a whole with all its layers, and the media should be the spokespersons of all these layers. If one of the pieces of the mosaic that make up the society is missing, there can be no mention of democracy. Today, however, the media does nothing other than the dominant paradigm, which tries to shape the country's politics, culture, and social structure, and the spokesman of the bureaucratic oligarchy. In order to transform society into a world view that they desire, media members do not put their best.
