Telewizja Polska (TVP) is Poland’s state broadcaster, founded in 1952 as the country’s oldest and largest television network. Operating multiple channels including TVP1, TVP2, and news channel TVP Info, the broadcaster functions as a public service entity owned by the Polish State Treasury. TVP has faced persistent accusations of political bias across different governments. After the right-wing Law and Justice party’s 2015 victory, European media characterized TVP as a “propaganda arm” of the government. Following the opposition’s 2023 electoral victory, Poland’s culture minister dismissed TVP’s leadership and initiated restructuring, placing the organization in liquidation. The broadcaster maintains international partnerships and operates channels targeting Polish diaspora communities, including TVP Polonia and regional services like TVP Wilno for Poles in Lithuania.
