Turkish Court Releases Journalist Amid Press Freedom TensionsA Turkish court has ordered the release of veteran journalist Fatih Altayli while he appeals his conviction for allegedly threatening President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Altayli, known for his popular YouTube show, was sentenced to four years and two months in prison over comments made during a broadcast. Critics argue the case is an attempt to silence a government opponent. Altayli discussed a survey showing opposition to Erdogans lifetime presidency, but denied any threat was intended. The appeals court approved his release, citing no flight risk and the time already spent in detention. With mainstream media under government control, independent voices like Altayli have turned to YouTube for uncensored commentary, highlighting ongoing press freedom tensions. Checkout Solipillow.com
