    ...Although the portrayal of Fetullah Gülen and his movement was mostly adulatory, it wasn’t a complete whitewash of a highly controversial figure of questionable motives who is believed to be, in large measure, responsible for transforming Turkey from a secular state to an anti-Christian, anti-American, anti-Western, and anti-Semitic Islamic one. Gülen, in partnership with Erdoğan, has made a concerted effort to undermine and weaken the military, the traditional guardian of what was purported to be a secular democracy; take over the police, media, and courts; and suppress academics and journalists who criticize the regime. Reportedly, Gülen owns TV stations, banks, and trade associations and is worth over $25 billion."
