German media accused of silence over arrests in Turkey

Original: Bis auf wenige Medien wie Tagesschau, Deutsche Welle und 3sat sowie heute die ZEIT schweigen die Blätter und Radios zu d

Critics say most German newspapers and radio stations are staying quiet about a wave of arrests in Turkey, with only Tagesschau, Deutsche Welle, 3sat and Die Zeit covering the story. Those arrested reportedly include queer association board members and journalists, whose websites and social media channels have also been blocked. The claim is spreading on social media, where users are questioning why coverage is so limited.

Why now: People are discussing apparent mainstream media silence on arrests of LGBTQ activists and journalists in Turkey.
