Holdis Quoted by Politico

The US-funded Radio Free Europe is now active in Bulgaria and Romania and is expanding into Hungary, to fight against misinformation and for media freedom. Politico’s article covering the developments quoted our researcher, Dumitrita Holdis.

“There is good reporting in Romania, there is good journalism, but it doesn't reach many people,” she said, pointing out that television, where many Romanians get their news, has “very poor quality reporting” while some good investigative journalism can be found in online media. Nevertheless, Radio Free Europe “didn't get much attention,” she added.
