Mircea Radu Badea (Romanian pronunciation: ['mirt??e?a 'radu 'bade?a]; born February 24, 1974 in Bucharest) is a Romanian political satirist, television host, media critic, radio personality and occasional actor.
He is widely known as host of În gura presei (The Talk of The Press) a show based on the daily news, that airs on Antena 3. Badea started as a radio host, but later branched into television as a co-host of the Tele 7 abc Buna diminea?a, România (Good Morning, Romania) morning show.
Together with Buna diminea?a, România co-host Teo Trandafir, he went on to work for the Intact Media Group and host a show on Antena 1, called Dimineata devreme (Early morning), and then hosted another show on Antena 1 called Teo si Mircea Sou (Teo & Mircea Show).
He has also had several film roles as an actor.
Badea became the host of În gura presei on Antena 3 in late 2004.
Together with longtime friend Calin Stanciu, he is a co-executive-producer of the show.
After Badea started În gura presei, he steadily gained popularity and critical acclaim, which also led to enduring controversy and resentment amongst various Romanian media personalities. Badea has gained significant acclaim as an acerbic, satirical critic of Romanian politics and most Romanian media outlets, in particular the coverage of Realitatea TV, Evenimentul Zilei or România Libera.
