About Daily Sabah

Major Daily Government-alignedLimited public info

Daily Sabah is owned by Turkuvaz Media Group, which is controlled by Zirve Holding and the Kalyon Group. The Kalyon Group has close ties to the Turkish government and President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and the acquisition of Turkuvaz Media Group was facilitated by pro-government business interests.

Daily Sabah is widely assessed by media watchdogs as having a pronounced pro-government bias, consistently aligning its editorial stance with the policies of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP). Media Bias/Fact Check and Ground News rate its factual reporting as 'mixed' due to poor sourcing and the promotion of government propaganda. Critics, including the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ), have noted instances where the parent paper, Sabah, published personal details of exiled journalists, framing them as criminals. The outlet was founded to present Turkey's viewpoint to international audiences and counter perceived biased Western media coverage.
