Özet

The fields of journalism and cinema can be considered two interdependent fields. While journalists produce content about the developments in cinema, journalism-related issues are frequently covered in films. Productions in which political scandals, corruption, and economic and social developments are transferred to the big screen with a journalistic perspective have an important place in the history of cinema. In this respect, it can be said that the cinema productions in question create a reality related to journalism. When the literature is examined, it is understood that there are studies examining these realities. Existing studies generally focus on how journalism is represented in cinema. The focus of this study is the examination of the issue Journalism in Cinema of Altyazı, a thematic cinema magazine. The November 2021 issue, which meets its readers with the theme of journalism in cinema, includes 13 different articles examining different movie examples on the subject. In this respect, the Journalism in Cinema issue of the Altyazı magazine contains self-reflective fiction with evaluations of journalism films. The study aims to reveal these different forms of reality about journalism in the November 2021 issue of Altyazı. It is planned to determine what kind of narrative about journalism is created through the language and visual elements used in the films’ analyses. The research results are expected to reveal how Altyazı presents the journalism fiction created in different films.
