No.20 they came out in their thousands
to voice their anger at what they say is
the latest silencing
of hungary's press more than 80
journalists from the country's most read
news site
called INDEX have resigned from their
jobs

after their editor-in-chief was sacked
last month he publicly raised the alarm
over political interference in the
outlets operations
for many the dismissal was seen as a
government directive
and the last straw

Eritor in chief:
we called him on the phone and said we
would like to initiate the end
that we no longer want to work at INDEX
after this about 60 members of the 90
people on the staff did the same
they also resigned and are ending their
work at INDEX

reporter:
INDEX has long been regarded as
hungary's key 'A' media outlet
but it has also been a target of this
man hungary's prime minister victor orban
who once branded it a fake news factory
one of his allies recently took charge
of its sales arm
perhaps a sign of things to come
