About Cumhuriyet
Cumhuriyet has been owned by the Cumhuriyet Foundation since 2001. The newspaper was founded in 1924 by Yunus Nadi Abalıoğlu, at the initiative of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, and remained under family ownership until the foundation took over.
Cumhuriyet is Turkey's oldest secular daily newspaper, known for its staunchly Kemalist, secular, and social democratic editorial stance. It has consistently been a critical voice against the Turkish government, leading to severe legal pressure, arrests of journalists, and accusations of supporting terrorist organizations. Reporters Without Borders awarded Cumhuriyet the Freedom of Press Prize in 2015, recognizing its independent and courageous journalism in a 'not-free' press environment. However, the outlet has faced internal power struggles, leading to shifts in editorial policy, and a recent scandal in 2023 involving alleged advertorials raised concerns about its ethical standards.
Reading context
Media systems vary by law, ownership, and editorial custom. We preserve each outlet's framing and add context so readers can compare coverage without treating one country as the default.
