In the battle for Turkey’s future and its soul, who is winning?
More than 150 journalists are currently in prison in Turkey.
President Erdogan’s government stands accused of an all-out
assault on freedom of expression. Stephen Sackur talks to Can
Dündar, former editor of the Turkish daily Cumhuriyet, who has
experienced imprisonment, life threatening violence and exile in
the last couple of years after publishing material which
infuriated the Turkish president.
