28.07.2025The Broadcaster's Chair Flipped
Polish media coverage on July 28 centered on two main evolving narratives. The ongoing severe weather crisis and flood preparedness dominated early reports, with MSWiA activating reserves and convening crisis staff as storms intensified across southern Poland. Concurrently, political discourse continued to scrutinize Speaker Hołownia's "coup d'état" claims from previous days, with the prosecution signaling intent to question him, fueling persistent criticism of his remarks. By late afternoon, the focus decisively shifted to the dramatic dismissal of Maciej Świrski as chairman of the National Broadcasting Council (KRRiT). This move immediately triggered a significant legal and institutional dispute, with Świrski challenging the legality of his removal, and the Constitutional Tribunal engaging the Sejm, alongside the announcement of a new chair.
