Journalist Fatih Altaylı made striking comments regarding RTÜK President Ebubekir Şahin.
"HE APPEARS TO HAVE TAKEN HIS SIDE IN THE POLARIZATION WITHIN THE AKP"
Altaylı used the following expressions in his column:
"RTÜK President Ebubekir Şahin has begun criticizing the morning program 'Müge Anlı' on ATV, the government's official mouthpiece, and the institution he heads has started investigations into the broadcasts of CNN Türk, one of the government's news channels. Everyone is surprised. He has even started making statements saying, 'We are an impartial institution.' For a long time, Ebubekir Şahin wanted to leave the RTÜK presidency and move to a higher position. He had his sights set on Fahrettin Altun's post. It was even said at one point that he was very close to this position. He had already started telling those around him, 'He is leaving soon, and I am coming.' However, when it didn't happen at the last minute, he was saying, 'Fahrettin went and begged the gentleman. He talked about health problems. The gentleman couldn't bear to let him go. But he will leave soon.' Judging by these recent moves, his criticism of ATV, and the investigation launched into CNN Türk, he must have lost hope for that position. He seems to have created a new career plan for himself and taken his side in the polarization within the AKP."
