Résumé En

140journos is a Turkish grassroots media organization, which aimed to transform the Turkish society through its creative and semi-participatory journalism practices. In 2011, the co-founders came up with the idea of a citizen media outlet operating mainly on Twitter upon noticing that the mainstream media was politically biased in its news coverage. Since January 2017, they no longer engage in citizen journalism due to the political climate in Turkey where citizens became reluctant to share information. Instead, they create news content based on photojournalism on specific issues and publish through visually dominant formats such as videos and mini photo documentaries. In this chapter, I discuss 140journos’ unethical media practices and their impact on the ethics of my research, such as controlled communication channels between the field researcher and the participants, as well as fear among participants of speaking out due to possible future repercussions. In this context, I reflect upon the ways in which a researcher might conduct reliable research without reproducing and complying with unethical practices of the media outlet.
