Today's issue of Süddeutsche Zeitung writes about the layoffs taking place these days in the Hungarian public media. The author underlines that the editors and presenters dismissed in the first round are mainly people who "don't belong to political parties or ideologies, are open and neutral riporters". The article furthermore points out that profecies seem to be coming true, as "the Hungarian Prime Minister and his party, after the EU-presidency, focus their strength on transforming the republic according to their expectations: tools for restructuring the media are already completely in their hands."
