The change of regime triggered significant changes at the paper: in five years it had three editors-in-chief, and in the summer of 1992 more than a dozen people came to the county daily from the conservative daily Új Magyarország. In 1994, Gyula Horn formed the government, which triggered significant changes in the media market.[2] The Pest Megyei Hírek, a county newspaper published by János Fenyő's Vico Rt., was launched as a county newspaper family of Népszava, as well as three local newspapers: the Váci Hírek, the Nagykőrösi Hírek and the Ceglédi Hírlap, which resulted in a drastic drop in the circulation of the Pest Megyei Hírlap.[3] Ironically, Vico's Hírek essentially ceased to exist after a few months, but the decline in circulation had by then also crippled the Hírlap, and the publisher decided to suspend publication of the paper in early 1995.[3]
The last issue was published on 4 February 1995.[4]
