Dunja Mijatovic, the OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media, announced today that she has presented the Hungarian Government with an expert legal analysis of recently adopted laws and draft legislation on media and telecommunications, and asked that the Government reconsider and amend the package.
« The media package is cause for very serious concern, » wrote Mijatovic in a letter to Foreign Minister Janos Martonyi. « If left unchanged, it would seriously restrict media pluralism, curb the independence of the press, abolish the autonomy of public-service media and impose a chilling effect on freedom of expression and public debate, all essential for democracy. »
