The chapter was published in The Global Handbook of Media Accountability.
The Hungarian media market has undergone a major transformation in recent years. There have been changes in media ownership, accompanied by a growing media concentration, and politics has visibly distorted the market. Both media corporations and journalists have to commit themselves to improving quality and professional standards. The lack of strong media accountability mechanisms is clearly a major obstacle to improving journalism and raising professional standards in the media industry.
