Peter is getting straight to business! 👏
Actual interview : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0O-dYHAs7BY
„But what has gone on here since 2010,
which would have made Goebbels or the North Korean dictator lick their lips,
that not a single true word was spoken, certainly cannot continue.“

I bet Hungarian state media and relevant personalities really regret making an entire segment about Magyar’s penis now
This is good news. Orban’s ruling party had a very strong editorial influence over state media. From 2010 onward Hungary dropped from #20 to #85 in media freedom, and Orban had stacked it with his lackeys. A democratic Hungary without free press was never possible.
we need to the same in turkey our media mades shit up daily quite recently media said school shooter was a pubg addict even though killer never played pubg
The other EU states need to do everything reasonable now to ensure this new government has the chance to be really successful. Because I guarantee that Russia and the previous system will be trying to undermine it and regain power.
I know people here are hyped up about Orban getting the boot, which is great, but I don’t think it’s a good thing for a democratic leader to start shutting down media. Even if said media is lying, there should be impartial authorities that manage that.
This is something I would expect Trump or Putin to say, not a sane leader.
Suppression of free speech. Why not have a debate, prove how they are spreading misinformation.
But ‚just shut it down,‘ is not good. And yet you clap.
And it really just comes down to what he replaces it with. Is he going to replace it with the kind of neutral state media that countries like Denmark and Sweden have? Or is he going to just turn it into a similar kind to what he’s replacing, but make it pro-Tisza?
Only time will tell.
There is a useful lesson here to all tyrant sycophants…..times change and then all your gathered money and power will not help you
I do not want to bring bad news, but you should observe what has happened in Poland.
Tusk promised to fix national media. In the end, we have the same propaganda tubez but with another bias.
I really hope that Magyar will do it right way.
Is he shutting it down completely or adding actual quality control to it/reforming it?
State/public broadcasters can be quite good if they aren’t a tool for the party in charge.
Wait I actually read the article, hes replacing it with a *real* public broadcaster, good news for democracy in Hungary.
The absolute chutzpah of these guy. I love it.
🥇💯🌞🥂
Fox News, Newsmax, Sinclair, etc. need to be forceably taken over by the next Democratic administration, nationalized, everyone fired, investigated for criminal activity, and turned into an independent national broadcaster
I’d like to watch that clip with subtitles.
Now it is time for EU to improve some rules like need for complete unanimity. One country should not be that mighty to veto-block a whole continent.
New boss, new narratives, new propaganda.
Never have I seen reddit love a right wing politician so much.
I’m still skeptical, but I have to admit, he’s off to a good start. Perhaps even more so than Orban’s media, I hope he’ll be able to get rid of the Orban judges.
