Crisis at Halk TV… The program Kayda Geçsin, hosted by Şule Aydın and featuring Murat Ağırel, Timur Soykan, and Barış Pehlivan, was one of Halk TV's most highly anticipated shows. In every episode, Murat Ağırel, Timur Soykan, and Barış Pehlivan would investigate different files and inform the audience.
However, those who sat down in front of their screens to watch the program this evening did not see this team.
This is because there is a Rasim Ozan Kütahyalı crisis at Halk TV. An interview with Rasim Ozan Kütahyalı was published on Halk TV's YouTube channel. Many journalists at the channel reacted against this figure appearing on Halk TV.
The Kayda Geçsin team announced that they had ended the program to show their reaction.
In a statement on her Twitter account, Şule Aydın announced the departure, saying, “Hello everyone… As of today, our paths with Halk TV have parted as the Kayda Geçsin team. In a period where the media is being blacked out under government pressure and press freedom is being slaughtered, we made free broadcasts on Halk TV and were supported in this regard. We would like to thank the Halk TV family and its viewers, who have always been valuable to us.”
