TL;DR Summary

Poland's new pro-European Union government has dismissed the management of public television, radio, and state news agency PAP, citing the need to restore impartiality. Critics claim that state-run media, particularly TVP Info, had become a propaganda outlet during the previous government's tenure. The move comes after the new parliament adopted a resolution calling for the restoration of citizens' access to reliable information and the functioning of public media. The previous government was criticized for stifling independent media and limiting freedom of expression.
