TVP Info apologizes to Wipler not once, not twice, not three times. They were defeated by their Twitter entry

in the evening on Wednesday, it showed an entry that looked as if it belonged to MP Przemysław Wipler. . The mistake was quickly noticed and after just two hours, an official apology appeared in the evening edition of the news service. But it is not everything.

TVP Info is trying to apologize to Przemysław Wipler on Twitter

An on-air apology is just one element. Przemysław Wipler reported on Twitter that he also received a phone call from the director of TVP Info himself with an apology and the announcement of “personal consequences”. There was also a large post on Twitter. However, I failed to write an apology the first time. The second time also failed. The third time didn’t work either. Only the fourth version of the post on social media was fully successful – everything can be seen in the edit preview, which was noticed by both amused and disgusted commenters.

We sincerely apologize to Mr. Przemysław Wipler for attributing to him the statement regarding the death of Tomasz Komenda, posted on the false account “Przemysław Wipler, the New President of Warsaw”. At the same time, we announce that an appropriate apology will also be published on TVP Info – it was written after several attempts.

Although the matter is serious (the entry from the account impersonating the MP was extremely disgusting), it was noticed that no one working around the program was surprised that Przemysław Wipler appears under the account name… “Pregnant peasant”.

You’d have to be a complete idiot to mistake an account with the nickname Pregnant Boy as someone’s official one.

The fourth version of the tweet, I would add six more corrections to make it clear that professionalism is not only on the air.

There is no excuse for poor editorial work. And the edit history of this post is… strong.

However, a qualitative change was noticed compared to the previous TVP authorities. Now you don’t have to wait for the court’s verdict to apologize.

The fact of an apology without the need to first obtain a court judgment is certainly pleasing. However, I wonder how on earth someone would allow something so absurd to happen. Do you have any researchers there at all? In the era of so many “fakes”, it’s probably worth spending a few seconds to avoid such obvious stupidity.

To say that TVP Info failed miserably is an understatement. But on the other hand, seeing an apology not forced by a court decision is a nice change. It’s just a pity that it had to happen like this.
