From this season on, ski jumping competitions are broadcast only on TVN and Eurosport, with some exceptions, and not on Polish Television as it was for years. However, the Olympic competitions can be watched both on Eurosport and TVP.
The change of broadcaster aroused a lot of controversy and emotions and during the season we witnessed many pins from TVP, especially since this season the number of jumps dropped. “Not only TCS. From the beginning of the season there are 40% less viewers. Erosion continues […] Besides, showing great events is a know-how that TVN is still learning. Viewers today are very demanding “, wrote Marek Szkolnikowski, the director of TVP Sport at one time.
Przemys³aw Babiarz sticks a pin to the competition: Jumping has returned home and there is an immediate effect
On Sunday, Dawid Kubacki won the bronze Olympic model in the individual competition on the normal hill. After the first round, Kubacki was seventh, but in the second round he jumped 103 meters (the third best result in the second round) and moved up to third place behind Ryoyu Kobayashi and Manuel Fettner.
Kubacki’s success was also used to drive a pin towards the competition. This time it was done by the TVP commentator Przemys³aw Babiarz. “For reasons beyond TVP’s control, the jumps may not have been very popular recently, but they came back home and there is an immediate effect” – he said after the competition.
Babiarz’s words met with negative reception in the social media “And that’s it from the” sports “class. Mr. Babiarz … “- wrote the TVN 24 journalist Anna Kwa¶ny.” Babiarz’s embarrassing joke that the Kubacki medal is related to the broadcast of the jumps on TVP, and not on TVN, shows that the propaganda even sports commentators brains out. Probably only the weathermen survived “- Michał Danielewski, the vice-general of OKO.press, reacted more sharply.
“Jumping has not returned to any house. And so there is no place for it, because there is a cesspool up to the ceiling” – wrote Tomasz Lis.
“Such jokes embarrass me. They do not outrage and certainly do not surprise on TVP. However, that such Babiarz cannot restrain himself even in such a moment as an unexpected medal, it just testifies to him. maybe Jack’s bonus will come, who knows? ” “In the history of tv commentators, there was no greater propagandist like Babiarz. A golden medal from Kurski.” – we also read comments from Internet users.
