Guys, are there any official statement by your NOC regarding this case?

It's very funny to imagine how angry a certain user would be about the Khelif / Karifi bout is the nationalities were reversed.

At least 2 TV channels (among the one which deal with politics most or part of the time, not considering like thematic channels), a couple of newspapers (honestly few people read newspapers in physical form any more) and a good part of online media (like half?)

By the way, apart from the public television, even media friendly to the gov is owned by businessmen close to the gov and not the state itself.
But I am not a big consumer of media (for example on TV I only watch sports and NatGeo etc.)

What I read online: Hungarian boxing fed will protest to the Hungarian Olympic Committee and IOC for the participation of the Algerian athlete and try to make a legal challenge thereto. Even if it is not possible or not successful, the athlete will do the match.

This was said by the boxer herself to , e.g. M4 Sport of and BBC Radio Sport.

Me too. In the past you would find out about the results of the games from printed newspapers + possibly teletext. Now everything is on the internet. About 20 years ago, when I was traveling with my father around Europe in the summer, in almost every country I would buy the local sport newspaper to read about the results. Well, maybe not in Hungary, because you have a very difficult language :P
