Israel asks Hungary to withdraw journalism award

Hungary should withdraw a state journalism award given to a TV presenter whose station was fined in 2011 for making derogatory remarks about Gypsies and Jews, Israel's ambassador said Monday.

 

Ambassador Ilan Mor said in a statement that Ferenc Szaniszlo's award was given "to the wrong person for the very wrong reasons. His ideas do not belong in a free and democratic society like the one in Hungary." (AP)
