Hungary’s ruling Tisza Party has proposed a comprehensive restructuring of the nation’s state media system. The plan centers on dissolving the current Media Services and Support Trust Fund, known as MTVA, which currently manages public media operations. In its place, the proposal outlines the establishment of new regulatory and oversight bodies intended to govern the media sector. A key component of the reform involves restoring the independence of the Hungarian News Agency (MTI), currently under government control. The proposal also details a revised system for financing public media, aiming for greater transparency and accountability. If enacted, these changes represent a significant shift in Hungary’s media environment, potentially impacting news dissemination and public access to information. Further details regarding the specifics of the new financing model and oversight structures are available in a report by Daily News Hungary.
