Güneş ("Sun" in Turkish) is a newspaper in Turkey. It is owned by the Turkish government, via the Savings Deposit Insurance Fund of Turkey (TMSF).

History

Güneş was launched by the Kozanoğlu‐Çavuşoğlu group in February 1982; it was later bought by Asil Nadir.[2][3]

Güneş was owned by the Çukurova Media Group (who acquired it from Güneri Cıvaoğlu) from 1996 to 2013. It was passed to the TMSF in settlement of debts owed to the Turkish government.[4]
