Several weekly newspapers ran blank front pages or cartoons to protest a bill that they say restricts media freedom.
The legislation under debate in parliament allows an official media watchdog to impose heavy fines on privately run publications with sanctions for unbalanced coverage or breaches of rules on coverage of sex, violence or alcohol.
Zoltan Kovacs, an editor for a political and literary weekly, believes the bill is aimed "against journalists, against transparency and against the profession as a whole".
