Radikal is a daily
Turkish language newspaper, published in
Istanbul. It has been published since 1996 on behalf of Doğan Media Group (Doğan Medya Grubu), a large publishing and communications firm owned by
Aydın Doğan in
Turkey.Radikal, unlike many daily newspapers in Turkey, does not seem to support a certain political party. However, it is generally considered as a left-wing (democratic socialist) newspaper. Ironically, compared to
Cumhuriyet, Radikal is considered by many to be much moderate, open-minded, and tolerant . It is praised for its culture, arts, and interview sections, as well as columnists such as
M. Serdar Kuzuloglu, Hakki Devrim, Turker Alkan, Altan Oymen, Nuray Mert,
Murat Belge and Gunduz Aktan. Mine G. Kirikkanat used to write for Radikal before she got fired after harshly critizing the Turkish nation . Hasan Celal Guzel, former minister of education, Murat Yetkin, and
Mustafa Akyol, son of Taha Akyol, also write for Radikal.
