Abstract
Dialogic theory provides a significant theoritical basis for the assessment of social media. The concept of dialogic communication has been connected to relational theory and two way symmetrical model of public relations. Accordingly, the concept has been discussed within the context of the compatibility of internet practices to dialogic principles and under the dialogic tenets of communication. The article analyzes three social media interfaces presented in the website of Ankara Metropolitan Municipality; Twitter account of Mayor Melih Gökçek, Municipality’s Twitter account and Municipality’s Facebook account. Municipality’s social media interfaces have been successful with regard to the dialogic principles of internet practices. However, the communication’s diaologic level has not been sufficient. In particular, despite very high number of followers, Mayor Gökçek’s practice does not support dialogue. This practice emerges as a negative trend for local politics, participation and democracy. Municipality’s Twitter account emerges as the best practice among the three with regard to dialogic communication

Abstract
Diyalojik kuram, sosyal medyanın değerlendirilmesi için önemli bir kuramsal temel oluşturmakta-dır. Halkla ilişkiler açısından ilişki yönetiminin bir öğesi olan ve iki yönlü simetrik halkla ilişkiler modeliyle ilişkilendirilen diyalojik iletişim kavramı özellikle internet uygulamaları üzerinden tartı-şılmaktadır. Makalede, Ankara Büyükşehir Belediyesi sosyal medya uygulamaları internet uygu-lamasının diyalojik ilkelere uyması ve kurulan iletişimin diyalojik olması başlıklarında tartışılmaktadır. Belediye internet sitesinde bulunan üç sosyal medya arayüzü, Belediye Başkanı İbrahim Melih Gökçek'in Twitter uygulaması, Belediyenin Twitter ve Facebook uygulaması diyalojik özel-likler başlığında değerlendirilmiştir. Belediyenin sosyal medya arayüzleri, internet uygulamaları-nın diyalojik ilkeleri yönünden başarılı bulunmuştur. Ancak, iletişimin diyalojik olma düzeyi yapı-lan incelemede yeterli bulunmamıştır. Özellikle çok yüksek takipçi oranına sahip olan Belediye Başkanı Gökçek'in kullanımının diyaloğu destekleyici olmaması yerel siyaset, katılım ve demokra-si açısından olumsuz bir eğilimi ortaya koymaktadır. Belediyenin Twitter uygulaması üç uygulama için de, diyalojik iletişim açısından en başarılı uygulama olarak tespit edilmiştir.
