Actions by the management during the past few years have called the autonomy and neutrality of TRT into question. However, workers who have criticised the changes in programming and their impact on the independence of the public service broadcaster, have been dismissed, given other assignments or are forced into early retirement.



On 24 November Haber-Sen will make a joint press release together with the journalists’ organisations of Turkey to protest against the oppression by TRT on its employees and union members.



UNI MEI fully supports Haber-Sen in their efforts to change the situation and calls on the Turkish government and the management of TRT to ensure that this oppression of employees and members of Haber-Sen will not go on.
