Episode Synopsis "Interview with Direkt36 Investigative Journalists Blanka Zöldi and András Pethő"

András Pethő co-founded Direkt36 with Gergely Sáling and Balázs Weyer in 2015, when Origo, Hungary’s then-leading online newspaper came under political pressure. Their new project, Direkt36, soon became an investigative force to reckon with. Blanka Zöldi joined shortly after, and today, András and Blanka frequently collaborate on investigative pieces.Direkt36 is an investigative journalism center that follows the Pro Publica model of in-depth research and large scale news partnerships. They interpret accountability broadly; they believe in the responsibility to show the public how decisions are made, and to show who really holds the power.
