Manisa Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ferdi Zeyrek was taken under treatment at Manisa Celal Bayar University Hafsa Sultan Hospital following an electric shock incident at his home.
It was reported that Mayor Zeyrek's health condition remains serious.
Following the incident, the newspaper Yeni Akit, known for its proximity to the government, announced the news of Zeyrek's hospitalization with the headline "Manisa Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ferdi Zeyrek was struck."
This phrasing caused criticism from social media users, and the newspaper's approach to journalism was once again called into question.
Many users on social media platforms condemned this approach by Yeni Akit, stating that the language used was not appropriate for the seriousness of the incident.
