Hungary’s Public TV News Anchor Assaulted
A news anchor of public news channel M1 was attacked and beaten up at the lakeside resort of Balatonfüred, in western Hungary, public news channel M1 reported on Tuesday. The attackers first asked Miklós Borsa if he was a news reader, then assaulted him, shouting “you can lie now!” Borsa is “relatively well”, but is not fit to work, M1 said.

The television channel voiced shock over the “assault connected to one’s occupation”. The Association of Hungarian Electronic Journalists (MEÚSZ) condemned the attack.
