| Summary/Abstract |
The early-summer protests in Turkey were not televised. Instead, Turkey's news networks aired penguin documentaries and cooking shows while all hell broke loose at the heart of Istanbul in Gezi Park, as what started out as an environmentalist movement quickly evolved into a major uprising against the Turkish government. But the networks remained mostly mute, intimidated by the prospect of reprisals from the country's hotheaded prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
