Turkish actress Berrak Tüzünataç blasts broadcaster for labeling her red carpet outfit ‘inviting’

ISTANBUL

Actress Berrak Tüzünataç criticized private Turkish broadcaster NTV on Feb. 18 for posting a tweet showing her on the red carpet and describing her outfit as “inviting.” 

Responding to the tweet on her own social media pages, Tüzünataç said it qualified as “harassment.”

“When the media uses such language, we do not need any more harassers,” she said.

In response, NTV Lifestyle removed the tweet and the network issued an apology, saying there was a “mistake” in the title.

“We apologize for any misunderstanding,” it added.

Tüzünataç welcomed the apology and said she hoped the incident would stand as an example in any future situations.

The photo had shown Tüzünataç wearing a white gown at the GQ Men of the Year 2017 event in Istanbul.
