Bu kitapta derlenen raporlar Türkiye'de görev yapmış olan Amerikan diplomatları tarafından hazırlanmış olup 1925 ila 1962 yılları arasındaki dönemi kapsamakta. Raporlarda gazetelerin satış rakamları, gazete sahipleri ve yazı işleri müdürlerinin görüşleri, gazetelerin siyasi ideolojileri, basın hürriyeti gibi konularda ayrıntılı bilgi vermekte. Bu raporlar sayesinde okurlar Cumhuriyet dönemi Türk basını hakkında daha önce mevcut olmayan bilgilere erişmekte.
This volume attempts to provide an overview of the Turkish press from 1925 to 1962. The information provided is based on reports by the different American diplomats stationed in the American Embassy in Ankara and in the Consulates of Istanbul, Izmir and Adana. As such, the reports themselves cover a wide spectrum of subjects, from detailed reports on circulation figures to the ideological profiles of the various newspapers, information about the papers' editors and owners to broader questions, like press freedom in Turkey.
As a result, this work will provide the reader with a unique access to a broad picture of the Turkish press in the Republican years, a subject that has yet to receive the attention from scholars that it deserves.
