Twitter bows to Erdoğan?

from The Media Show Hosted by BBC Radio 4

As the vote for the Turkish presidency heads for a second round, we explore the challenges journalists in the country are facing covering its closest election in decades, from the dominance of media supportive of the government to bans on social media platforms. After Rishi Sunak was photographed welcoming Ukraine's President Zelenksy to Chequers with a bear hug, we discuss press photographers' access to the Prime Minister. And we discuss what Google's latest AI announcements mean for Search. Guests: Ozge Ozdemir, journalist with the BBC's Turkish Service; Yaman Akdeniz, Turkish academic and online rights campaigner; Shona Ghosh, Deputy Executive Editor at Insider's UK bureau; Jay Davies, Director of News photography at Getty Images; Carl Dinnen ITV political correspondent. Presenter: Katie Razzall Producer: Simon Richardson Studio Managers: Duncan Hannant and Steve Greenwood
