It can be said that the most watched tv program type after tv series is the main news bulletins. The framework of this study consist of May 2, 2017 dated main news bulletins which were broadcasted on the most watched tv channels such as, TRT 1, Star, Show, Fox, ATV and Kanal D. In this study, intentional sampling was used to investigate the distribution of the news types in the bulletins broadcasted on May 2, 2017. The broadcasted bulletins in the mentioned tv channels on May 2, 2017 constitute the sample of the study. The basic logic of television channels is to become much more watched. This logic also shows itself in the bulletins. The goal of being the most watched, affects preparation of news bulletin, selection of the news headline, KJ writing and presentation of news. The headlines presented in the bulletins were examined on the sample day.
