That’s how you frame your readers. The author doesn’t know whether there’s causal relation between the possible insult and the plans to control the social platforms. But this is how media tricks the readers in thinking so.

as a European I wonder if 2021 will be the year we read the same headline about Poland and Hungary - the latter is well on its way

He literally referenced the insults as a justification for his actions. So no, this is not media deceptiveness.
Quotes from a different article:
> "“Do you see why we oppose social media like YouTube, Twitter, Netflix, et cetera.?” Erdogan asked in reference to the alleged insults of his family members. “It is imperative that these channels are brought under control.”
> Erdogan said: “Turkey is not a banana republic. We will snub those who snub this country’s executive and judicial bodies.”"

#6I wonder what some mid- to long-term consequences of Turkey slipping into dictatorship will be for NATO as a whole.
It's clear Turkey is drifting away from the values held by the alliance members.
I'm so glad they haven't been accepted into the EU. That would be a disaster.

Nothing.
Just like how Poland and Hungary are EU members and they are walking their own way not giving a f about anything, rewriting the constitutions and laws as they wish

Is it? Isn't this plain reporting of the events in the sequence that they occured? It's all too often that the media frames things a certain way but I'm having difficulty agreeing with you here.
