BudapestSun.com about to close
Wow, what a piece of news I read in the Budapest Times today morning. One of the biggest English News sources about Budapest and Hungary is about to shut down, the Budapest Sun. According to the Times the decision was made due to the financial crises. The owners of the Sun is a large regional publisher from the UK called Northcliffe Media which is covering the UK as well as Central and Eastern Europe.
The Budapest Sun exists since 16 years and is/was one of the leading news sources in Hungary in English language. Just a couple of weeks ago they change their design to a rather magazine style than newspaper style and where publishing every fortnight. It is sad that the financial crisis reaches such good papers as the Budapest Sun definetly is. We will see when it will happen and how.
