How public funds are used to pay for English-language articles portraying Orbán as a brilliant leader

Rod Dreher, an American journalist, praised Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán in an article, highlighting his positive traits. However, Dreher's salary was indirectly funded by Hungarian taxpayers through the Lajos Batthyány Foundation (BLA), which has received significant public funding to support pro-government initiatives. The BLA has evolved into a public asset management foundation, receiving billions in public funds over the years, which have been allocated to various organizations that promote Orbán's policies. This funding has raised concerns about the transparency and purpose of such financial support, as many organizations funded by the BLA are seen as tools for government propaganda.
