Népszabadság has returned as a weekly, while other outlets are losing some funding sources, the report says.

In a 9 November report, ČT24 describes changes in Hungarian media after April’s election. Népszabadság, which ceased publication in 2016, has returned as a weekly with roughly half its former newsroom staff.

Deputy editor Gábor Horváth links the return to reduced political pressure while warning against illusions about politicians. The report also says some independent websites are losing subscribers, while outlets close to the former government are losing state funding.

The account illustrates how a change in the political situation can affect newsrooms differently. Assessments of pressure and subscriber motives belong to the broadcaster and the people it interviewed.
