Declaration by the Chairman of the National Broadcasting Council
16.11.2022
The current political situation related to the death of Polish citizens in Przewodowo requires special prudence on the part of the media. The media should inform citizens based on reliable sources, in a balanced way, taking into account the position of duly authorized representatives of the authorities of the Republic.
I would like to remind you that the reproduction of single-source and unverified information is an element of disinformation, which can destabilize and weaken Poland's security.
I would like to remind broadcasters of broadcasts that are distributed exclusively through the ICT system that they are obliged to register their channels in the register maintained by the Chairman of the KRRiT. I also urge them to be prudent in the content they provide and provide only verified information.
I thank those broadcasters who understood the gravity of the moment and did not use this moment to launch political attacks on their adversaries.
Maciej Świrski
Chairman of the National Broadcasting Council
