But according to news website Hürriyet Daily News Miss Kansu’s dismissal was later confirmed.
Mr Çelik said it was his fundamental right to express his opinion as an individual, TV viewer and politician.
Writing on his Twitter account he said: 'I never named a show or a person.
'It was the media who alleged the names.'
