Cette étude cherche à comprendre comment les journalistes constatent l’influence du parallélisme politique sur la couverture britannique des relations entre la Turquie et l’UE. Pour ce faire, la recherche se sert d’une méthode d’interview. Cette partie empirique de l’étude se concentre sur le point de vue des journalistes sur la couverture médiatique de la question turque et sur l’approche des politiciens britannique envers le même sujet. C’est pourquoi l’échantillon de recherche se compose des journalistes qui travaillent ou ont travaillé pour les médias britanniques et avaient publié des nouvelles sur la candidature de la Turquie à l’UE. Les données ont été analysées en utilisant des techniques d’analyse qualitative et les données brutes ont été évaluées dans
les limites de l’analyse du niveau individuel et du niveau extramedia du modèle hiérarchique proposé par Shoemaker et Reese (1996).

This study seeks to unveil how the journalists view the influence of political parallelism on the British coverage of Turkey-EU relations. In order to find an answer to this query, the research was conducted by employing an interviewing method. This empirical part of the study focuses on the journalists’ view on the media coverage of the Turkish issue and the British politicians’ approach to the same topic. Therefore, the research sample consists of the journalists who work or had worked for the British media and had published news items about Turkey’s EU bid. The data was analysed by using qualitative analysis techniques and the raw data was evaluated within the limits of individual and extramedia level analyses of Shoemaker and Reese’s (1996) hierarchical model.

Bu çalışma, Türkiye’nin AB’yle ilişkileri hakkında Birleşik Krallık medyasında yayımlanan haberler üzerinde siyasi paralelliğin (political parallelism) etkisini gazetecilerin görüşlerini inceleyerek ortaya koymayı hedeflemektedir. Araştırma karşılıklı görüşme tekniği kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın ampirik bölümü Türkiye’nin AB’ye üyeliği konusunda çıkan haberlerle ilgili gazetecilerin görüşlerine ve aynı konuda Britanyalı siyasetçilerin nasıl tavır aldığına odaklanmaktadır. Araştırma örneklemi Britanya medyasında çalışan veya daha önce çalışmış ve Türkiye-AB ilişkileri hakkında haber yayımlamış gazetecileri kapsamaktadır. Elde edilen veriler nitel analiz yöntemleriyle çözümlenmiştir. Ham veriler incelenirken Shoemaker ve Reese’nin (1996) hiyerarşik modelindeki ‘medya çalışanlarından kaynaklanan etkiler’ (individual level) ve ‘kurum dışından gelen etkiler’ (extramedia level) adlı iki basamağın kapsamı içinde kalınmıştır.
