Thousands of protesters gathered outside the headquarters of Hungary’s public media corporation on Saturday to demonstrate against what they say is an entrenched propaganda network operated by the nationalist government at taxpayer expense.
The protest was organized by Hungary’s most prominent opposition figure, Péter Magyar, and his upstart TISZA party, which has emerged in recent months as the most serious political challenge for Prime Minister Viktor Orbán since he took power nearly 15 years ago.
…
Both Hungarian and international observers have long warned that press freedom in the Central European country was under threat, and that Orbán’s party has used media buyouts by government-connected business tycoons to build a pro-government media empire.
The Hungarian dictatorship must fall
I hope Hungary manages to break free of Orban.
Amomg other things because I’d find it hillarious that Fico would find himself completely isolated in EU.
There’s Meloni and Wilders, unfortunately. But yes please depose the bastard
Only cholesterol can get rid of that guy. They rigged the election system over a decade ago and have their people everywhere.
It would be great for sure, but I think the chances to get rid of Orban and his bootlickers is very close to zero.
Oh shit we can do that?
Couldn’t they just create an opensource instance and have some journalism majors run it? Or is that illegal there.
It would be difficult to compete with established news sources, and especially difficult to fund, to do something like that on a dime, much less the question of growing the audience. Subversion of established sources of information is extremely powerful.
there are credible news outlets, that’s not the problem. the problem is that the propagandists are everywhere. they literally own the state TV channels, and most if not all regional newspapers and their online versions. a lot of people only watch/read these, and even more of them only believe what these tell
End the zio-fascist govt in Hungary.
