Turkey has many media outlets
that broadcast and publish news in the English language. Following trending
news can be a challenge if you have not mastered Turkish yet.
There are
several publications in print and online to read to get an in-depth look at what is happening in
Turkey. Here are some of the famous broadcasters who can help you to follow the
local Turkish news in English.
Hurriyet Daily News founded in 1961 is Turkey’s
oldest English language daily. Op-eds, local, regional and national news are
featured in this daily publication.
Daily Sabah is also available in Arabic and
was founded in 2014. The long-running popular ex-pats corner feature covers
subjects of interest to transplants to Turkey and both publications also
chronicle cultural reporting.
Anadolu Agency is like the Associated Press
(AP) and sends up-to-date articles on the wire to outlets around the world.
TRT World is a Turkish public broadcaster. Broadcasting
24 hours a day, it provides worldwide news and has studios around the world.
Its mission is to show events from Turkey's viewpoint to a non-Turkish
audience. You can watch everything from sports coverage to live broadcasts from
the ground.
Cornucopia, dubbed as the publication for
connoisseurs of Turkish culture and heritage, this attractive magazine is one
to keep on the coffee table. For those interested in Turkish culture, pick up
this publication that only comes out three times a year. Covering Turkish
history, art, literature with regular features on food, life, and more. This
magazine is a special nod to all the beauty that Turkey has to offer.
