If they don't broadcast it this year, they can't be back. That is, unless EBU makes an exception.

If there is still a rule about that, EBU shouldn't make an exception to Turkey in this case.

^ Has this rule been re-introduced? xthink

yes. a few days ago there was a news in a portuguese eurovision website were it said something like: "Portugal wants to comeback to eurovision in 2014. the first step for this return is broadcasting the final live. RTP is now negotiating the broadcasting."

I'm only hoping that we won't withdraw from EBU.

I hope TRT will; so at least a saner channel can apply for the broadcast right. Why doesn't EBU just kick them out anyway? maybe some local Eurovision organizations should contact with them about this.

My candidates are;

Star TV
Kanal D
NTV
Fox
Ulusal Kanal

I think only state channels can apply for EBU. o_O

Nope, even multiple channels from the same country can be a member. That means there is no any obligation for another channel to apply for membership at the moment.

Eurovision without Turkey is just...bittersweet to me.

Turkey got Europe's very huge hate this year. Even Turkey comes back, I don't expect anyting good. Turkey wasted the good impression that had in the past years.

Well; Europe always tends to hate Turkey at some point.

This is the reason Hadise got 4th place with horrible vocals? Montenegro did it better in 2009.

That's mainly because of all those diaspora votes. Turkey was literally treated like a stepchild throughout lately 70s', 80s' and 90s'. Northern Europe for example somewhat boycotts Turkey. When we make a good start at the voting, even our commentator falls into despair when it's their turn to vote.
