Turkey's media watchdog, RTÜK, has ordered the removal of the TV series "Jasmine" from broadcast. The regulator stated the show damaged the "understanding of the traditional family."
In its reasoned decision, RTÜK claimed the show's narrative did not align with societal values. The decision effectively bans the series from being aired on television.
No specific scenes or plot points were detailed in the public announcement. The move highlights RTÜK's active role in monitoring broadcast content based on its interpretation of social norms.
