In 2012, the journalist went with her family to the United States for some time. Her husband, Ryszard Schnepf, served there as the Polish ambassador, and she was a correspondent from Washington.

For half a year, I had been feeling a growing sense of embarrassment towards myself. What am I still doing there?! Why am I wasting my time? There are so many interesting stories that I want to tell, but I don’t want to tell them on air, which is not only a caricature of journalism, but also the height of professional incompetence. I don’t fit in with national television

I will only invite wise, competent interlocutors who owe their achievements in life to their own work and talents, not to party connections. I am glad that I am joining the group of independent journalists who are rebuilding public television in Poland from the ruins, announced the journalist, not hiding her excitement.
