Summary/Abstract: The author presents the book of Péter Gyuricza (Média – csata – tér: fejezetek a magyar média és a hatalom utóbbi 25 évének történetéből; The battles of media - spaces) showing the relationship between media and politics in Hungary in the last 25 years. The book examines the impact of the media on political life in Hungary, focusing on both traditional media and new (Facebook, blogs,etc.). Ivett Bak concludes that this book is pessimistic, because media in Hungary tend to influence the masses, not to inform them impartially.
