The TVP blunder is the topic of the day on TV Republika. Not even this much time was devoted to “Tusk’s journey”

TV Republika accused the Public Television of technical problems in “Teleexpress”. A minor mishap, for which Maciej Orło¶ explained on TVP, became the event of the day on Sakiewicz’s station. More time was devoted to it than to the tragedy in Podhale and even to the increases in food prices.

The latest edition of the news program began with material about the importance of Boxing Day for Catholics. Then the meeting with Pope Francis was reported straight from Rome. During Easter, the Head of the Church spoke about the victory of life over death.

The TVP blunder did not go unnoticed by Telewizja Republika. They devoted as much as 5 minutes to “Teleexpress”.

Then the “Dzisia” reporters smoothly moved on to the restoration of VAT, changes in the education system, the tragedy caused by storms in Podhale and the gas explosion in Tychy. None of the above topics received as much airtime as the TVP blunder.

The report on the event in “Teleexpress” lasted as long as five minutes. However, the technical problems of Telewizja Polska were only a pretext for another tirade about the “illegal takeover” of the media by the new government. “No sound, apology, another attempt and complete silence again. And finally, the board with the station’s logo was displayed and the program was interrupted. This is not April Fool’s Day, but a short description of yesterday’s ‘Teleexpress’ program, which almost did not appear on neo-TVP” – Magdalena Bałkowiec announced the material.

“It is worth noting that Telewizja Polska has modern equipment. Despite this, since the illegal takeover of public media, it has been increasingly struggling with further technical problems and a decline in viewership. But it was supposed to be new, better quality and ‘pure water instead of propaganda soup’,” she said. to the words of Marek Czyż from “19.30”, presenter of TV Republika.

Technical problems in “Teleexpress” are the topic of the day on TV Republika

In the report, viewers could watch a fragment of “Teleexpress”, in which Maciej Orłości explained technical problems. The journalist noted that such situations on television are normal, but the author of the TV Republika material has a different opinion, noting that “such technical problems may be surprising, especially since over PLN 2 billion was spent on public media last year.” “Polish Television has all the tools necessary to carry out its mission at the highest level,” the reporter emphasized.

Then, the amounts that would soon reach TVP were carefully calculated and the legality of TV financing was questioned. There were also comparisons to the old Polish Television. “In the history of Polish Television, the days in which this type of problems appeared could, until recently, be counted on the fingers of one hand. The interruption of the transmission of ‘Teleexpress’ is a phenomenon in the history of this program. The last time such a situation occurred in 2010” – we hear in the material .

From a technical failure in “Teleexpress”, the TV Republika reporter smoothly moved on to the “illegal takeover of public media” in December 2023 and the intrusion of “strong men” into the TVP building. Minor problems in Orłoś’s program were presented as an extremely significant and symbolic event. It was also a good excuse to remind about the viewership of TV Republika and the decline in the number of TVP Info viewers.
