Current joke on Turkey's social media: Nobody is going to watch season 7 of Game of Thrones. Tyrion or dragons can't top Turkey's intrigue.
President Erdogan says state of emergency declared in Turkey for three months. I believe first time outside of Kurdish area since 1980 coup.
Gov't talking point is the French State of Emergency. But gov't spokesperson just said it happened in US? Did they mean Baltimore curfew?
Just a little over a year ago, AKP's election slogan was that it ended the State of Emergency in Kurdish cities. Now, all of Turkey.

"A bit hot but I manage." Guy commandeers tank during the coup, figures out driving, takes to bus depot. The grin.https://twitter.com/bidebunuizle/status/756085253396111360 …

I see @ezgibasaran & @ikoker tweeting in English; correcting the many misconceptions in Western media on Turkey coup. Let me know who else.

The ultras who participated in Gezi protests. Current attempts paint all dissent as pro-coup is worst possible path. https://twitter.com/hasavrat/status/756904072721104896 …

Multiple stories in Turkey; a bloody coup; massive and heroic resistance; a legitimate need to find perpetrators; and government overreach.
Int'l media not doing great job; but pro-gov English tweeters rushing to paint all dissent as pro-coup: way to shoot yourselves in the foot.
No wonder nobody can make sense of Turkey's coup. Independent journos (long ago) sidelined—remaining obsequious "journalists" untrustworthy.
with the current atmosphere , it would be suicide to write anything against Erdogan's regime ,it would be great to hear their take
