TVP appoints Jan Dworak as new company president

Jan Dworak, TV and film producer, announced after the verdict, that "In my opinion, public television should be critical towards every authority, unbiased towards politics and parties, but at the same time investigative and observe events carefully." The new TVP president did not want to reveal details concerning his plans, because as he said, he needs to consult with his advisors. Jan Dworak will take over the duties on February 17, when the whole composition of the five person board of management will be selected. Dworak announced he plans to make TVP more objective, open to cultural and educational matters, and interesting. The selection of Jan Dworak for the post is quite a surprise as he was not one of the final three candidates. Since none of the finalists received six votes from the board, the selection of one of ten candidates was repeated. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 1) A.K.
