Hungary’s Public Media To Over Haul TV Channels
Public television M1 will from March 15 broadcast non-stop news and transfer its non-news programmes to Duna TV, a joint statement by the leaders of public media outlet MTVA, channels M1 and Duna TV said.

A sports channel dubbed M4 will be launched in July and M2 will broadcast music programmes in the evenings from March. MTVA has commissioned British media professional Simon Jago to rebrand M1. MTVA will renew its mobile and internet platforms too.

Duna TV, the channel that traditionally targeted audiences beyond the borders, launched in 1993, will take on the role of the “main public channel” and will host popular programmes, cultural and religious magazines currently running on M1.
