ATV newsroom and presenter reshuffle

Overview

The Hungarian broadcaster ATV is implementing a series of significant personnel changes across its news and morning programming.

Initial announcements confirmed that veteran journalist Varga Edit would become the lead anchor for the flagship evening news program, ATV Híradó, in September. This transition coincided with the departure of long-time editor Anikó Vogyerák, who returned to MTVA.

Subsequent reports detailed a broader newsroom reshuffle. András Szurok, the editor-in-chief of ATV Híradó, is reportedly leaving for RTL Híradó and will be succeeded by Szabolcs Lendvai. Other staff departures include Nikolett Toró and Luca Stohl, who are moving to public media, and Ferenc Szlazsánszky, who is stepping down from the ATV Start morning program.

To strengthen its lineup, the station is recruiting new talent, including Dávid Szirmay for the morning show, Korinna Kocsis for the weather team, and Tibor Tresó as a reporter for Heti Napló.
