KRRiT 2023 Report: Public Media Crisis, Disinformation, and Market Analysis
This is the 2023 annual report of the National Broadcasting Council (KRRiT). It details the crisis in public media following December's political changes, the fight against disinformation, penalties imposed on broadcasters for legal violations, and an analysis of the radio and television market. For citizens, it provides insight into the state of media freedom, program quality, protection from harmful content, and changes in media financing.
Key points
Public media crisis: Legal chaos and a drop in viewership for TVP and Polish Radio followed the December 2023 changes, with some programs being taken off air, impacting citizens' access to information.
Fight against disinformation: The KRRiT fined broadcasters for spreading false information, such as reports on the Oder river contamination, and organized conferences to combat Russian propaganda.
Audience protection: 69 fines were imposed on broadcasters in 2023 for violations, including failing to protect children from harmful content, airing profanity, and broadcasting improper advertisements.
Media financing: The license fee system is inefficient, with only a fraction of households paying, and revenues do not fully cover the costs of the public service mission. Discussions on a new funding model are underway.
Market shifts: On-demand content (VoD) and internet usage are growing, especially among younger audiences, leading to a decline in traditional television and radio viewership.
