Summary/Abstract: In his work, Bodó retrospects the past twenty years of Hungarian public life in Romania.The author in his inference accentuates that the written media’s coverege is wider than the radio’s or the TV’s, and at the same time the Transylvanian cable network usually offers at least two, generally five or even six home country channels. This means that the local coverege is poorer than the written media, but on the whole it is still better. The author did a pioneering work in this subject, because he emphasizes those motives, from which resulted that almost every scandal related to the Hungarian politicians is missing from the press. Bodó presents the editing principles of the Transylvanian public and political blogs. He also analyses the Transylvanian newspapers’ coverege in the region. The author gives a detailed review about the Transylvanian Hungarians’ media consumption habits.
