Approaching On The Issues Of Political Agenda And Identification Of Media Usage Habits Of The Youths: The Case Of The July 15 Coup Attempt

Abstract

Mass media are the most important sources of information regarding the political agenda of today's people. Especially in cases of political and social crisis, mass media plays a crucial role in constructing opinion. Today, young people in a closer relationship with technology are undergoing change and transformation at the point of following the news media and forming their political agendas. In this study, it was attempted to find answers to the questions about how educated young people follow their political agendas, what factors are influential in determining their political attitudes, how often they follow different media, and how they interpret the role played by the media during the July 15 coup. Questionnaires were applied to the sample group selected from the students who had undergraduate education at Karadeniz Technical University. As a result of the study, young people are more informed that they are following the political agenda from the internet based information sources rather than the traditional ones and that they are more dependent on traditional information sources and the environments where the primary relations are valid in terms of developing political attitudes. It has also been determined that young people have a high level of interest in the political agenda and that young people think they are knowledgeable in this regard. It was also found that college youngsters paid attention to the role of the media during the July 15 coup, but that they thought the media did not adequately inform themselves.
