Every night in Poland, The News goes up against The Facts. The News (Wiadomości in Polish) is the newscast on TVP, the state broadcaster, which, in recent years, has been widely accused of being little more than a government mouthpiece. The Facts (Fakty in Polish) is the nightly newscast on TVN, a private network owned by the US media behemoth Warner Bros. Discovery, which is often critical of the hard-right government. Once The News is over, TVP airs another show—Jak oni kłamią, which translates as How They Lie—with the explicit aim of countering “TVN’s manipulations” on The Facts.
