168 óra (168 Hours = 1 week) was launched by the radio broadcaster of the same name, which is part of Hungary's state broadcasting service Magyar Rádió. The radio programme 168 óra was broadcast on Saturday afternoons and Sunday mornings. Initially the weekly magazine was just the print version of the radio programme. Later on it became an opposition weekly mainly featuring interviews with politicians, economists, political analysts, centre-left intellectuals and artists. In April 2022, the editorial staff of the print version were dismissed and the owners announced that the weekly would continue to appear, but with content provided by freelance authors. Excessive costs were cited as the reason for the move. In August 2022, the print edition was discontinued due to rising energy and paper prices.
