''Népszabadság'' is a major left-leaning Hungarian newspaper. ==History and profile== ''Népszabadság'' was founded in November 1956 as successor of ''Szabad Nép'' (meaning ''The Free People'' in English) which was established in 1942 as the central organ of the dissolved Hungarian Working People's Party.〔 ''Népszabadság'' was also the organ of the party. At the beginning of the 1990s, following the collapse of the communist regime, the paper was privatized and the owners were Bertelsmann AG Germany (50%), the Free Press Foundation (Szabad Sajtó Alapítvány in Hungarian (a foundation of the Socialist Party, MSZP)) (26%), the First Hungarian Investment Fund (16.8%), and the Editorial Staff Association (6%).〔〔 (The history and ownership of Népszabadság )〕 The current editor-in-chief is Marcell Murányi who was appointed to the post in July 2014. The paper is published in broadsheet format〔 and has its main office in Budapest.〔 In 2004, the newspaper secured sufficient funds to build an entirely new, high capacity, full color printing facility for its own exclusive use, which is rare for the Hungarian press. The expanded use of color was meant to preserve the ''Népszabadságs uncontested number one position among daily newspapers. It has more copies circulated than all of its Hungarian competitors combined, although circulation is declining quickly (see below). The paper is close to the MSZP and Alliance of Free Democrats (SZDSZ) parties and its editorials often supported, though frequently also criticized, the former socialist-liberal government. Its editorials sometimes speak out against the popular Fidesz party. Its international agenda is usually supportive of EU and US policies, though rare criticism includes U.S. President George W. Bush's "democracy export" initiative.〔 (Collection of examples at a website on antisemitism )〕 ''Népszabadság'' follows the US in calling certain countries rogue states or part of the axis of evil and is somewhat critical of Arab countries, both on political and human rights grounds. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Népszabadság」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
