New Research Findings On Turkey Reveal Kurdish Media Habits

Kurdish media habits are similar to that of the national population of Turkey, according to media research data released by the Broadcasting Board of Governors.

Amidst reduced press freedoms, younger people across Turkey are looking toward the Internet and social media to consume news and information.

Across Turkey, television remains the top choice for news (90% past-week use), but the Internet is very much in second place (42% past-week use) -- including among the country’s Kurdish population, which the research took an in-depth look at for the first time.
