Magyar Országos Tudósító Rt. híranyaga (1924-1944)

The Hungarian Reporter (Magyar Országos Tudósító) was a subsidiary of the Hungarian News Agency. The lithograph it circulated was titled MOT and belonged among the most important semi-official news services in the country. It was based on information gathered at the Mayor’s Office, in the Sherrif’s Office of Pest County, at the State Police, in the major Courthouses, etc. Moreover, MOT included news items from leading political parties, vartious professional chambers, academic and literary institutions as well as the Protestant Churches (but not those of the Catholic Church in Hungary). The Hungarian National Archive has most of its materials that was released in the years between January 1929 and August 1944.

The MOT lithographs are organized chronologically. The press reviews created at the editorial offices of MOT are arranged thematically and chronologically for each theme such as Hungarian, minority or foreign press review.
