Csaba Domotor: Median’s False Polling Data Has International Implications

The allegedly false polling data published by Median may not only have been aimed at pushing smaller left-wing parties out of the political arena, Csaba Domotor, Fidesz Member of the European Parliament warned. According to the MEP, such data could also serve to lay the groundwork for potential political pressure tactics.

In this image, you can see the prestigious Guardian’s forecast just weeks before the 2022 election. They wrote about Peter Marki-Zay’s lead over Viktor Orban. The election result was a two-thirds victory for Fidesz. The Guardian was not bothered by publishing untruths—before, after, and ever since, it has remained one of the dominant voices in the media chorus attacking the Hungarian government,

the MEP remarked.

This is a carefully constructed, multi-actor play of deception. As I often say at public forums: it matters less who they put in the shop window—right now, the name happens to be Peter Magyar—but rather, what matters is the size of the network standing behind him,

Domotor concluded.

Ultimately, it was the Hungarian people who made the decision back in 2022, and that will be the case again this April,

Domotor said, closing his statement.
