The immigration phenomenon, which can date back as far as the human history also developed and continued to increase with the globalization and the developments in communication tools. These two important facts developed and increased parallel with each other and they became the most important subjects of the world in recent times. The refugee and asylum-seeker movements form the world agenda nowadays and it continues to be in the agenda due to press and media organisations following the subject closely and creating a public opinion. The growing refugee crisis gained speed and continued to increase especially with the protests and civil wars called "The Arab Spring", happening in the Arabic peninsula, and became the most emphasized topic by the media and the press agencies of many countries. In this study, six days' news coverage on the topic of refugees in The Guardian in England and the Hürriyet newspaper in Turkey were analysed and compared. The study will try to explain and focus on the similarities and differences between these news contents, from what perspective the refugee problems are looked at and how they are reported in the news.
