Last Minute Turkey News: Call from Fahrettin Altun to Narin Güran Publications
In a recent social media statement, Fahrettin Altun, the Director of Communications at the Presidency, addressed the irresponsible and manipulative reporting by many national media outlets regarding the ongoing judicial investigation into the tragic murder of eight-year-old Narin Güran.
Altun expressed concern over the damaging nature of these publications, which he believes are focused on ratings rather than respecting the memory of the victim or aiding in the investigation process. He highlighted that numerous complaints have been made by sensible citizens to relevant institutions regarding the insensitive coverage of this case.
“We are closely monitoring these broadcasts that not only disrespect the memory of Narin but also hinder the progress of the investigation,” Altun stated. He called on all media organizations, both national and local, to refrain from publishing content that disturbs citizens and jeopardizes the integrity of the investigation. Altun urged for responsible and ethical reporting in order to uphold the principles of journalism.
It is crucial for media outlets to prioritize the sensitivity of the case and to refrain from speculative reporting that could potentially harm the ongoing investigation. Altun emphasized the importance of upholding ethical standards in journalism and respecting the privacy and dignity of those involved in such tragic events.
