Cenk Uygur Biography

Cenk Kadir Uygur is a Turkish-American political commentator and media host. He is the creator of "The Young Turks," an American left-wing, sociopolitical, progressive news and commentary program.

Before beginning his career as a political commentator, Uygur worked briefly as an associate attorney in Washington, D.C. and New York City. Uygur co-founded the progressive political action committee Justice Democrats along with Zack Exley, Saikat Chakrabarti, and Kyle Kulinski. In addition to hosting "The Young Turks," Uygur appeared on MSNBC as a political commentator. From January to June 2011, he hosted a weeknight commentary show on the network before being replaced by Al Sharpton. After leaving MSNBC, Uygur secured another weeknight commentary show on Current TV, which aired from December 2011 to August 2013. From 2012 to 2013, he was the chief news officer at Current TV, succeeding Keith Olbermann.

In 2020, Uygur was a candidate in both the special election as well as the regularly scheduled election for California's 25th congressional district to succeed former Representative Katie Hill, who resigned in 2019. He ultimately lost both elections. Uygur has announced his candidacy in the 2024 Democratic presidential primaries.
