Deputies support Kaczynski brothers in legal action against TV station

Eighty deputies to the Sejm have declared their support for Lech Kaczynski, the Justice Minister, and his twin brother Jaroslaw in their battle against TVP1. The brothers have initiated legal proceedings after TVP1 broadcast a film accusing them of unethical political activities. They accuse the television station of violating a law, according to which broadcasts have to be politically neutral and unbiased. The brothers are supported not only by politicians, but also by many journalists who are of the opinion that the TVP1 film was biased, and clearly accused them of activities that should first have been resolved by the courts.
