He hosted the programmes Teke Tek, Teke Tek Special and Teke Tek Bilim on Habertürk TV and Bire Bir on Bloomberg HT. Altaylı is the recipient of the "Honour Award for Contribution to Education" given jointly by TİKA and the European Federation of Journalists.[1]

Career

He was born on 20 September 1962 in Van. After attending primary and secondary school at Çavuşoğlu College, he continued his education at Galatasaray High School. He graduated from Galatasaray High School.[2] After attending Boğaziçi University Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences for a while, he left the school and transferred to Istanbul University Faculty of Communication in 1984. However, he left this school without receiving his diploma. Altaylı stepped into journalism at the newspaper Cumhuriyet as a sports reporter. In 1993, he co-founded the radio station Best FM. From 1995 on, Altaylı continued with broadcasting at Show Radio for about one year. The same year, he was appointed news presenter at the sister media Show TV channel. In addition, he started to present his own program Teke Tek (One to One).[3]

In 1996, Altaylı transferred to Doğan Media Group.[4] While writing his column at Hürriyet, he was tasked with the post of a coordinator at Radio D in the same media group. In the summer of 2002, Fatih Altaylı was appointed top executive of the television channel Kanal D.[3]

In 2005, he parted ways with Doğan Media Group and joined Sabah Media Group, his Teke Tek programme broadcast on Kanal D was transferred to atv and he continued his columns in Sabah. He worked as editor-in-chief at Sabah. He resigned in 2007 after the TMSF seized Sabah newspaper and atv due to financial problems of the former owner Dinç Bilgin.[3][5][6] Altaylı worked a while as a freelancer writing at his own website before he was appointed the top executive of the newly established newspaper Habertürk in January 2009. During his time as a freelancer, he had also been working as a news presenter at the television channel Kanal 1. He had also presented the program Teke Tek at Ciner owned sister media channel Habertürk TV, which he had joined in 2008 until his resignation in 2023.[3]

On 29 March 2014, he resigned as the editor-in-chief of Habertürk newspaper.[7]

Between 2001 and 2002, he served as the second president of Galatasaray SK under Mehmet Cansun[3][8], from which he was expelled from on 27 April 2021. Fatih Altaylı's expulsion decision was cancelled by the decision of the majority members at the 2020 numbered ordinary general assembly meeting held on 17 October 2021.[9] He made an eventful thank you speech to the Galatasaray Council Board, stating, "I would like to thank my board for not approving the unlawful dismissal decision of Mustafa Cengiz and his friends."[9]

On 16 May 2023, Habertürk management terminated the broadcasts of Altaylı, including the Teke Tek programme.[10]

On 17 May 2023, Altaylı announced that he had left Habertürk TV and the Habertürk newspaper, referring to Turgay Ciner, he stated: "As Turkey is entering a new phase, I should not be a burden to someone I call a friend. My freedom should not be his burden.[10] Therefore, I believed that it was time to realise something that had been on my mind for some time. And yesterday, I talked to dear Kenan Tekdağ, whom I have worked very closely with and trusted for 15 years. We decided to part ways."[11][12] In his last column in Habertürk's newspaper, Altaylı bid farewell to his readers with the title "Thanks to everyone who put up with me".[12]

He currently writes columns on his own eponymous website and shoots content on his eponymous YouTube channel and Teke Tek Bilim.[12][10] As of January 2024, his program Teke Tek has over 1000 episodes and 30 seasons.

Political views

Although Altaylı has never revealed which party he voted for publicly during an election period, he has announced which parties he voted for in the past in the 'Perde Arkası' programme broadcast on BBN Türk and moderated by Journalist Talat Atilla and Tamer Korkmaz. Answering journalist Talat Atilla's question, "Which parties did you vote for?", Fatih Altaylı said, "I never voted for a conservative party. I never voted for MHP. I never voted for DYP. I may have voted for ANAP. I have never voted for right-wing parties."[13]

In a section of his column titled "Tebrikler Burak Elmas Başkan" dated 20 June 2021, Altaylı wrote: "I have never seen the party I voted for win in Turkey except for two local elections." signifying that Altaylı had voted for CHP in previous elections.[14][15]

Controversies

Following the 2013 corruption scandal in Turkey, Altaylı was heavily criticized for allegedly manipulating the election polls by vote shifting from MHP to BDP to favor the PM Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's party in a series of tape recordings that were leaked onto the internet,[16][17] and for supposedly publishing an article at the request of PM Erdoğan, which led to firing of an editor and two journalists from Habertürk.[18][19][7] In defence, Altaylı stated that the entirety of Turkish media was under pressure and said, "Every day there are instructions coming from somewhere. Everybody's scared."[20] Altaylı, also claimed that the audio recordings of him published on the internet were edited, stating, "For years, everyone has been talking about pressure on the media. So what was the pressure on the media? How was it done? This is the first time that the pressure on the media has been revealed in the flesh and bones.", also adding on that he did not manipulate the polls,[21] Altaylı stated that he published the results of the survey exactly as they were.[22]

In his television program with COVID-19 as the main subject, he made an unprompted statement where he accused Syrian refugees of "Holding Turkey as hostage" and "Acting as a proxy for the Syrian government such that they have already won (against Turkey)", among other accusations such as "being exempt from law".[23]

On 21 February 2023, the Directorate of Religious Affairs filed a lawsuit seeking a jail term of at least 6 months against Altaylı over "perverted" comments.[24] The controversy began when Altaylı reacted to a response posted on the website of the Diyanet's High Council of Religious Affairs in the "FAQ from the earthquake zone" section.[24] The response in question addressed the issue of foster families and stated, "There is no obstacle to marriage between the adopter and the adopted child."[25] Taking issue with the response, Altaylı expressed his disapproval on Twitter, saying, "Well, we understand that you are really perverted, but what are you doing in an institution like Diyanet? Perverts. Go and get into the porn industry. Do not pollute the institution established by Atatürk to provide proper religious knowledge to the nation with your perverted imagination."[26][27] Altaylı, who strongly criticized the religious body members statements, defended himself by asserting that his comments fell within the boundaries of freedom of expression.[28]

Ownership of the Varagavank Monastery

There is controversy over his ownership of the Varagavank Monastery, which he inherited from his grandfather. When interviewed by Agos, He publicly said that he would return the monastery to the tourism board or Patriarchate so it could be renovated, but this has not been done.[29][30][31] He claims that nobody in the government would respond to his requests, but at the same time did not even attempt to make an effort to give the deed to the Armenian Patriarchate.[32][33] The only time he himself attempted to return it was right after a change of government in Van occurred, (the prior government were the ones who suggested the idea to restore it) resulting in the new government he asked having no interest in the restorations.[34][35]

Personal life

Fatih Altaylı is married to Hande Türel.[36] The couple have one child named Zeynep.[37] Altaylı is a Galatasaray supporter.[38]
