TRT World News TV Turkey Live Stream

TRT World is part of Turkey’s public broadcaster, the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation, and is a member of the Association for International Broadcasting. Since TRT World is a national broadcaster run by the Turkish government, some western commentators have argued that it is a “propaganda” channel aimed at persuading foreign viewers to be more amenable to the Turkish government. Following the 2016 Turkish coup attempt, some journalists who had newly joined the company resigned.One of those who resigned said: “I no longer hold out any hope that this channel will develop what I wanted it to become After the coup, it became very apparent that the channel had no intention of actually covering it properly, in a professional, international broadcast standard.” The managing editor at the time said that he “never received a phone call from Ankara trying to frame the broadcast or give them talking points.”
