Description
TRT Global , previously named TRT World , is a Turkish public broadcaster which broadcasts in English 24 hours a day and is operated by the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation (TRT) and based in the Ulus quarter of Ankara. It provides worldwide news and current affairs focusing on Turkey, Europe, Africa, and West and South Asia. In addition to its headquarters based in Ankara, TRT World has broadcasting centres and studios in Washington, D.C. and London. It is a member of the Association for International Broadcasting.
The state media network has been criticised for failing to meet accepted journalism ethics and standards for independence and objectivity and scholars and commentators have criticised it as a propaganda arm of the Erdoğan administration. TRT World claims that it is financially and editorially independent from the administration, and that its news gathering is just like those of other publicly funded broadcasters around the world, with a mission to show a non-Turkish audience events from Turkey's viewpoint.
