Science news which also includes health news, it
should be shown awareness in regard to compliance with ethical principles.
Besides that, it can be seen especially in parallel with “Click”–“Advertising”
equation in the internet media that an attitude of negligence towards the
reality and the discourse of scientific source arises. The objective of this
study is to determine in what way science news is presented in the internet
media. It is also aimed at revealing to what extent national media institutions
digress–in particular through headlines, photographs and spots-from the
scientific context of the subject in science news added on their websites, in
order to be able to increase “the potential of clicking”. The sampling in this
study has been chosen from science news shown on websites of national media
institutions. When taking into consideration analyses regarding news seen in
the internet media, it has been found out that headlines, spots and photographs
do not truly reflect the real situation and some information in the news is
added, modified or removed, briefly the news becomes deceptive in order to get
more clicks and increase advertising revenues. According to the occupational
principles of the press, it is required that all media institutions make news
completely, truly, correctly, multifacetedly and by adhering to discourse of
news source. It is seen that the internet media neglects these principles in
some news and deceives their readers.
