Olejnik and Żakowski likely to spearhead changes in TVP1 news reporting
The new management board of the first channel of national television (TVP1) announced an end to the current way political commentaries are made and a clean break with the policies of former TVP director Robert Kwiatkowski. "These are so far initial plans. The new program schedule has to be accepted by TVP's management board," said chief of the channel Maciej Grzywaczewski. To indicate the change is real, the channel would promote two renown journalists - Monika Olejnik and Jacek Żakowski. The new head of the Wiadomości news program would be chosen at the beginning of August as, "We are considering six candidates and we are constantly in negotiations," explained Grzywaczewski. However, TVP deputy president Ryszard Pacławski announced that Wiadomości already has its head - Lena Bretes. (Rzeczpospolita, pp. A1, A4) M.M.
