He completed primary school in his birthplace and gymnasium (1973) in Senta. Subsequently, he became a student at the Department of Hungarian Language and Literature in Novi Sad. Between 1978 and 1991, he worked for Novi Sad Television as a theater critic and editor of the cultural program Jelen-Lét. When editorial policy became increasingly characterized by strict censorship, he left the television station and worked for the private newspaper Napló, serving as acting editor-in-chief from 1993 to 1996, and as editor-in-chief from 1996 to 1997.

Since 1999, in memory of the last editor-in-chief of Napló, the Rafael Takáts Hungarian Cultural Circle in Padej has announced a reportage competition titled Közegellenállás, and its library has been named after Károly Keszég. Since 1998, an annual Károly Keszég Memorial Day has been held in his birthplace.
