News Lineup

There is a bomb explomation in Urfa, Suruç 20th of July. 32 young people that try to help the kids of Kobane murdered by ISIS terrorist. Every newspapper saw these massacre from their front pages but with a huge difference. 

Pro-government newspapper, Takvim, selected "Shut up Selo" headline for 22nd of July. The newspaper said "shut up" to HDP's co-chair. They claimed, Demirtas frighten HDP's "white-Turk" constituents when he speaks. Also, there is a "warning" from Takvim's editor in chief, "if coalition happens, there will be the incidents like Suruc massacre. Of course, there is no evidence and facts. Bottom of the front page, we can see Ahmet Hakan from "Doğan Medya" Zekeriya Oz from Gulen congregation which Takvim's clear "enemies"

Cumhuriyet, select the news of bombers identity for their headline. Also "humanity stories" from young people that killed in Suruç and there are two crictism of pro-government newspapers. I think, the most important news of the 22th July, is the identity of the killer and Cumhuriyet saw that from headline.

Aydınlık, nationalist newspaper, saw the accidents from their ideology. There are a lots of PKK, terror, our soldiers, traitors etc. 

Both three newspapers saw the coalition discussion between AKP and CHP. Pro-government newspaper is like "coalition will be chaos", nationalist newspaper criticise the CHP and "one more step to coalition", and Cumhuriyet more "normal" and select the normal headline which is "Due date is 7th of August"

They select the photos with their view of news. The two propaganda newspaper, Aydınlık use big photo from soldiers funeral, Takvim use "perspire Demirtas"  But Cumhuriyet show more respect to their news and use normal photos. 

There are no more same news on the newspapers from different ideologies.  They saw the same news with huge differences. 

 

Political Discourse

Kemal Kılıçdaroglu, is one of the most calm politicians in Turkish politics. He always tried to be calm and mostly achieved. He explains their project "Merkez Türkiye" and he explained the project with facts, informations. And also he explained their opinions about the agricultural stuffs, retirees etc. very clearly.  He is a typical and "resarch-type" leader.

Selahattin Demirtaş, co-chair of HDP, told "Prime minister Ahmet Davutoglu, said 'We are not called Selahattin Demirtas as Selahattin. The name come from Selahattin Eyyubi and the name Selahattin are not fit for Selahattin Demirtaş' I didn't sleep for three days because of sadness. We are not sure if we continue or stop our campaign." during their campaign. As he did whole their campaign, Selahattin Demirtaş, appeals the emotions, with great sense of humour.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the president of a republic, was not a candidate for the elections but he join the AKP's election working even it's illegal. He is a authotarian leader, but his supporters define him as a "charismatic" He always appeals the emotions, mostly ecclesiastic and national feelings. He show the Kurdish Kuran during the campaing in cities mostly live Kurdish people. He also use the "fear" for muslim people. They said "If we had gone, you're not living belief freely".

Scrabble Commercial

Scrabble commercial is one of the most impressive commercial I've ever seen. Super creative idea and good fiction. It could look simple because they didn't use too much techniques but the technique they use it enough. We might think how the commercial that not use may techniques and music can be that beautiful. They prove us, it can.

Commercial starts with the women who woke up and it was about "the beginning of the love story". Woman is a cab driver and the man is a crab diver. Woman looks from middle class, she is a urbanite woman who fear from the loneliness. Man looks more provincial, he is a fisher in a small city of Japan. But the characters is not telling us something big. They choose the cities, jobs because of the "anagram". 

Scrabble is a game about the words and the commercial handle the relation of words. Story teller derivatize the words during the commercial and tell the story of "Agostina" and "Santiago".

 "Words" dominated the commercial but a pinched music behind the words. The music is suitable for commercial's tempo because it is a high-tempo commercial. A light music with guitar behind the commercial and the suitable for the tempo of the commercial.

The commercial is not contain big messages, beautiful (popular) song or very beautiful (or handsome) man/woman. But the commercial contains super idea. I think many people exprience the message similarly.

The commercial also contains beautiful colors, cool places. Commercial looks like a Wes Anderson movie. There aren't big messages, ambitious commitments, big heroes but there is a idea with places reflected beautifully.
