TVN suspends journalist Tomasz Lis after Newsweek poll

In an interview with the weekly, the journalist has not stated whether he will run for the post. "The management only informed me that it will make some sort of a decision. I am calmly waiting for it," said Lis. Newsweek has forecast that Lis could be a candidate for the presidential seat supported by the Civic Platform (PO), although the party's leader, Donald Tusk, has denied such speculations. However, Tusk added that party representatives had talked to Lis about his possible candidacy for a seat in the European Parliament. Lis has refused, claiming he is associated with TVN. According to TVN spokesperson, the management of TVN is currently holding talks with Lis about his future plans. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 4) A.K.
