“We falsely spread the word that the founder of the children’s magazine Kispolgár, Árpád W. Tóta, promotes sado-maso sex for children. We hereby apologize to the person concerned,” the moderator of something called news in the propaganda factory, that is, the state television M1, read this apology to a commentator of the independent website HVG at the very beginning of the show.
It was an unprecedented situation until now. If the television were to apologize to everyone whom it has defamed on political orders over the past 16 years, it could only read similar apologies for weeks.
Commentator Tóta, known for his sharp language, added to the social network as a joke that “we did it because we are crooked souls” and because “due to a lack of talent, we were only able to make it through meanness in a system where it was more valuable. Now we are forever working from our profession and will spend our poor lives in repentance.”
It is not yet clear who will work and from where, but it is evident that many who have been connected to the government Fideszare changing their tactics.
Some decided to speak about the corruption, which the whole nation knew about, but the voters did not know all the details, others are trying to agree and negotiate, as he indicated Péter Magyarfuture prime minister.
Szijjártó is already having fun with the media
Perhaps the most visible example of Fidesz’s change in behavior is the over three-hour interview that Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó gave to the independent Telex portal.
He answered all the questions quite patiently, even though he styled them in Fidesz propaganda templates. At the same time, he also uttered sentences that the audience had not heard from him before, for example, that Mask he is the aggressor.
Szijjártó became one of the most famous foreign ministers in Europe after the media published transcripts of his secret phone calls with Sergei Lavrov, in which he briefed him in detail on the negotiations of the European authorities. In the interview, he defended himself by always informing his European partners about the content of his phone calls.
What would they probably say to him that he forwarded internal EU documents to Lavrov if they knew about it? They obviously didn’t know.
