BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Hungary’s leading online news site says its editorial staff and independence are “in grave danger” because of a reorganization attempt that compromise its journalistic integrity. Index.hu on Sunday moved its “independence barometer” to “in danger” from “independent.” Index is among a handful of independent outlets which have suffered financially and have seen their freedoms to operate without interference curtailed under Prime Minister Viktor Orban. At the same time, an Index executive said that the company’s management had rejected a plan to reorganize the news site. In a 2020 global survey of media freedom by Reporters Without Borders, Hungary fell two spots to 89th place among 180 countries. It was in 56th place in 2013.
