The publicist Zsolt \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tBayer defamed Rroma as \u00abmurdering animals\u00bb using his newspaper \u00abMagyar Hirlap\u00bb \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tas a circulation organ. Bayer is known to be a political companion and personal \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tfriend of prime minister Orban. The reigning Fidesz party distanced itself from \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthe statements made by Bayer, but didn\u2019t condemn them. Judiciary minister Tibor \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNavracsics criticized Bayers comments in a public television program, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdenouncing the statements as incompatible with the Hungary\u2019s democratic \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tprinciples. Orban himself didn\u2019t take any public position. Zsolt Bayer is known \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tto have made racist agitation before, also using the \u00abMagyar Hirlap\u00bb to make \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tanti-Semitic comments against Jews. <\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Odehnal (2013) complements the topic with \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\ta shocking detail: Not only did Bayer compare Rroma with animals and said that \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthey had no place amongst other humans, but propagandized for their immediate \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\textinction. Taking side with the Hungarian left-wing opposition parties, who \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tfiled criminal complaint against Bayer because of demagoguery against Rroma, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthe RCP condemns Bayer\u2019s agitation deeply. Such a public call for the extinction \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tof the Rroma should not be let unpunished. It deeply scares and astonishes, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthat such a misanthropic statement is aloud to be made public by the Hungarian \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tmedia and laws. That the proponents of the article appeal to freemdom of the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tpress can only be called absurd. It abandons any sense of ethics and respect \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\ttowards people in general. <\/p>\n<p>Pester Lloyd (2013\/I) states that un-firm \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdistancing of Fidesz from the racist statements shows that the party is trying \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tto bind voters from the ultra right-wing Jobbik party. The article concludes \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tresigned that a silent toleration of racism and open hatred has become a \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tnormality in Hungary.<\/p>\n<p>In the most recent article Pester Lylod \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t(2013\/II) confirms that the Hungarian <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dict.cc\/englisch-deutsch\/chief.html\">chief<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dict.cc\/englisch-deutsch\/prosecutor.html\">prosecutor<\/a> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\thas droped charges against Bayer, stating that there is no visible danger of \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tpeople persecuting Rroma.
