It's difficult to explain in a few lines just how awful that site is. Used to be the biggest, well respected hungarian news site until it was bought by Orban's friends a few years ago. Since then the political columns are literal fake news and smear campaigns against political opponents. The kind of thing that would be (rightfully) censored by Facebook if it was posted by anybody else. Letting the government (and only the government!) peddle this kind of rhetoric with oversight explicitly lifted is a very dangerous and morally questionable practice.
