For foreign audience it goes with this explanation:
Robert Fico’s government in Slovakia is taking similar steps in the field of media as Viktor Orbán in Hungary. The government is trying to gain control over public television, coalition MPs refuse to give interviews to mainstream media, preferring conspiratorial and pro-Russian ones.
Journalists from mainstream media experience bullying from Mr. Fico and other politicians. The most popular tabloids are owned by oligarchs who have connections to Mr. Fico. In the Slovak space on Facebook, the contributions of Robert Fico and far-right politicians receive the most attention.
