  This article focusing on the changes within the Hungarian media sphere after the Orban–
  Simicska conflict. After the conflict the Hungarian media sphere has changed radically. Those of
  the media outlets which belonged to Lajos Simicska had cease their operation. Business persons
  who have close ties to Fidesz has founded new media outlets. In my article I analyzed three
  political case which happened during the Fall 2018. I assumed that the media sphere in Hungary
  had become more polarized than before. In order to prove it, I created two groups of the media
  outlets. The first one, which have close ties to the governing party, and the second one which has
  not got ties to Fidesz. During my research I used three different methods. First, I
  recorded astatistics about the articles. According to this, the media agenda shows large difference between
  the groups. I did content analysis on the articles, which shows us a huge polarization between
  the groups. The third one, was network analysis. The network analysis did not confirmed the
  polarization hypothesis.
