Freedom of expression is the right of an individual to do as he/she says, write what he/she thinks is right and thus so freely with other people in social life, associations, organizations, to name a few. As such, freedom of expression is a fundamental and vital freedom and right of every individual. The freedom is an associated and it is with a container for basic rights and freedoms. Therefore, any statement relating to this freedom is faced with risks that remain missing. This study tries to attempt under a general point of view the situation of the freedom of expression in Turkey both legally and practically. The study will try to present a comparative way of the EU standards with the Turkish cases. In fact, revealing of the Turkish application may present limited point of view for subsequent studies, because of the freedom of expression is always a hot agenda and the discussions raised day by day on the issue.
