To be fair, we had our own police drama with Blockupy here, although on a way smaller scale (I really don't want to downplay the situation in Turkey here, just trying to say why it may not be that big in the news).

And it's not like there is no coverage here whatsoever, spiegel.de for example has an extra category for Turkey at the moment (http://www.spiegel.de/thema/tuerkei/). It could be better, no doubt, but it's there and I'm sure that it's going to be bigger in the next few days.
