Hungary’s ruling party, Tisza, has introduced legislation to reform the country’s public media outlets. The proposed changes come amid criticism that these outlets functioned as a government mouthpiece under former Prime Minister Viktor Orbán. Critics both within Hungary and internationally allege a lack of editorial independence in state media during Orbán’s leadership. The new bill aims to restructure the organizations responsible for public broadcasting. Details of the proposed reforms have not been fully disclosed, but the move signals a potential shift in media landscape. The legislation is expected to face scrutiny from press freedom advocates and opposition parties. The overhaul seeks to address concerns about political bias and ensure a more balanced media environment.
