Domestic and Foreign Interference? Poland Plans to Prevent Hostile TV Takeovers After Romanian Elections – QUICK TAKE
12 December 2024
Rebuilding democracy started with Poland’s public media. With nationalist politicians on the streets in the freezing cold to “protest against autocratic practices” of their successors in government, rest assured that Polish democracy is getting better.
Poland’s nationalist Law and Justice (PiS), which lost power just weeks ago to a four-party coalition led by Prime Minister Donald Tusk, is staging a rally on Thursday in Warsaw under a false pretence they are defending democracy, freedom and media pluralism.
Frustration and fury over swift changes in state media
In reality, PiS and its leader Jaroslaw Kaczyński are venting their frustration not only at the loss of power in the 15 October elections but at the swift action taken by the new government to purge public media of PiS functionaries who had turned them into shameless propaganda machine spewing misinformation and vilifying political opponents, civil society organisation and Poland’s Western partners.
