Miklós Ómolnár

Miklós Ómolnár has served as editor-in-chief of the KESMA-owned tabloid Ripost since December 2016. According to a 2026 account by former Ripost staffer Ágnes Forgács, Ómolnár went "up to the Karmelita" - the Prime Minister's Cabinet Office - every Tuesday to coordinate, then returned to brief the newsroom with pre-assembled files containing personal data, photographs and "attack points" resembling political operations material rather than editorial background research. Forgács said a dedicated "political action group" at the outlet surveilled and documented opposition politicians, particularly during the 2022 election campaign. Hungarian courts have repeatedly ruled against Ripost for spreading falsehoods.
