There was a story the other day on NPR/BBC that a Turkish journalist resigned rather than continuing to work under the new Erdogan government, after blowing the whistle on the Turkish government's providing arms to Syrian rebels.

There's also this story:

Which will be a lot of floor space for 10 guys, even if they are Americans.
Maybe, just maybe, Turkish journalists aren't quite as free to speak the truth as one would hope.
