KRRiT 2025 Report: Public Media Crisis and Viewer Protection

This is the 2025 report of the National Broadcasting Council (KRRiT). It details the deepening crisis of public media following their placement into liquidation, leading to a drop in viewership and biased coverage. The Council outlines its actions to protect viewers, including fining broadcasters for violations, and points to attempts by the government to limit its independence.
Key points
Public media in liquidation: further decline in viewership (TVP lost over 6% market share) and persistent bias in news and commentary programs.
Viewer protection: KRRiT imposed fines on broadcasters totaling nearly PLN 5 million, mainly for advertising violations, failure to protect minors, and failure to register VoD services.
Media funding: TV license fee revenues are declining, and the government finances public media with ad-hoc grants (over PLN 2 billion in 2025), making them dependent on political decisions.
Pressure on KRRiT: The Council points to attempts to weaken its constitutional position through draft laws (the so-called media law, DSA) and the rejection of its report by the Sejm and Senate.
