STATEMENT: TURKEY: JOURNALIST BERNA KIŞIN DELIBERATELY TARGETED BY A PRO-GOVERNMENT MEDIA OUTLET, CFWIJ CONDEMNS THIS VICIOUS ATTACK
/
Journalist Berna Kişin was deliberately targeted by the pro-government Memleket Newspaper, following her coverage of the assassination of seven people in the same family in Konya. The news outlet alleged that the journalist wrote a pro-terrorist story. The Coalition For Women In Journalism (CFWIJ) condemns the news outlet targeting the journalist. As the coalition, we stand in solidarity with Berna. No journalist should be targeted as a result of the coverage they do.
