The sharing of images of Nihal Candan, who is fighting for her life with an anorexia diagnosis, on social media has once again brought media ethics to the forefront. The fact that the person who shared these images is the designer Pınar Kerimoğlu has drawn significant public backlash. In the Magazin Bahane program aired on Haberler.com, strong evaluations regarding the issue were made. The program's hosts, Gökay Kalaycıoğlu and Hakan Solaker, emphasized that trying to gain social media interaction through Nihal Candan, who is battling a life-threatening illness, is unacceptable.
"DOING A SHOW TO GAIN INTERACTION"
One of the most shocking incidents in the program was the video recording of the moment when asparagus was put in Nihal Candan's mouth while she was lying in bed, which was shared on social media. It was claimed that the images were provided by Kerimoğlu, and it was stated that "These images are a show made for the sake of gaining interaction." Gökay Kalaycıoğlu, the host of the Magazin Bahane program aired on Haberler.com, strongly opposed these shares with harsh words during the live broadcast.
"WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO SHARE A WOMAN'S SCREAMS?"
Kalaycıoğlu expressed his reaction by saying, "What does it mean to share the screams of a woman on her deathbed on social media?" The reactions did not stop there. The host pointed out that it was unethical for designer Pınar Kerimoğlu to enter the hospital room, lie next to Nihal Candan in her hospital bed, and put asparagus in her mouth. He continued with the words, "You are sharing these images just to gain social media interaction. Is this even possible? This is incompatible with journalism, humanity, and motherhood," emphasizing that the incident is not just content but a behavior that undermines human dignity.
"YOU ARE NOT A JOURNALIST, YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO JOURNALISM"
Kalaycıoğlu stated that Pınar Kerimoğlu is not a journalist and used the following expressions: "You are not a journalist, you are not a program host. If you were in this profession, you would only be a disgrace. Making people's pain a material for a show is a betrayal to the profession." The host also expressed that the Candan family has been going through a tough test for years and that such behavior during this period is absolutely unacceptable.
"YOUR FAMILY CALLED YOU, YOU TURNED THIS PAIN INTO AN OPPORTUNITY"
Gökay Kalaycıoğlu, touching on even more striking details behind the incident, said, "I researched, and I know that your family called you and wanted you to shoot. But you turned this into an opportunity. This is not a professional show, it is a personal show." On the other hand, Kalaycıoğlu continued his criticisms towards Kerimoğlu, stating that many contents and offers come in the industry every day, but they do not rush to every call and act within ethical boundaries.
"PATIENT PRIVACY AND HUMAN RESPONSIBILITY WERE DISREGARDED"
Journalist Hakan Solaker, who supported Gökay Kalaycıoğlu's criticisms, drew attention to another dimension of the discussion. Solaker stated that patient privacy was clearly violated and emphasized that how these images were taken and shared on social media, and how the hospital management allowed this, must be questioned. He pointed out that exposing a woman during a struggle for life in such a manner involves serious violations not only ethically but also legally.
SOCIAL MEDIA REACTS
It was commented that Kerimoğlu, who has not achieved the success she desired in her professional field, is trying to compensate for this deficiency by becoming a social media phenomenon. It was noted that the steps she has taken recently to attract attention have led to criticisms that her professional inadequacies are being covered up by the pursuit of popularity.
