The channel is one of a small number of broadcasters and media outlets which have been openly critical of the Fidesz-KDNP government.

Members of such government and media outlets which favour the coalition have criticized its non-government-friendly programs and left-wing or liberal presenters.

Although the station retains its critical stance, the station has reduced some of its analytical programming due to pressure from management at the Faith Church, which has increased its association with the Fidesz-KDNP government in recent years; as a result, many presenters have departed to other opposition media outlets.
