Members of KRRiTV sue TVP for biased coverage of Presidential campaign

Marek Jurek and Jaroslaw Sellin from the National Radio and Television Council (KRRiTV) filed a suit against Public Television (TVP) accusing it of lack of impartiality in the presidential campaign broadcasts. "According to the broadcasts Aleksander Kwasniewski is the only serious candidate for President and the rest loiter somewhere in the background," said Sellin. He refers to the monitoring results conducted by Ekspert Monitor center and presented by the campaign team of the other candidate for President, Solidarity Election Action (AWS) leader Marian Krzaklewski. "Polish Television represents Belarussian standards - it shows the President only in advantageous situations smoothly omitting inconvenient facts," said Sellin. (Zycie, page 4)
