TVP's former head leaves behind some rather expensive footprints

One such agreement concerns Kamil Durczok, a popular news reader, that guarantees him zł.720,000 in compensation should TVP break a four-year contract with him. Furthermore, it turns out that many more similar contracts were signed by Kwiatkowski just before he exited the company. He also planned to appoint new management positions at four regional TV centers and replace various agency heads, as he wanted to give these lucrative jobs to various friends. However, TVP's supervisory board would have had to have agreed to these decisions, something that it refused to do. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 6) A.F.
