In this program, accusations, threats of lawsuits and insults have already been directed at every participant in the conversation.
A sharp verbal clash unfolded in the Telewizja wPoland studio after MP Sławomir Żwik misheard something, a misstep that some say affected the Polish policy for 2050. The discussion between Robert Telus (PiS) and the MP mentioned above, moderated by Jakub Maciejewski, centered on claims of a large sum—100 billion zloty—allegedly siphoned by the right, according to Donald Tusk.
The journalist addressed the PiS MP and commented on the figure of 100 billion:
These huge sums will stick to you!
At that moment, Żwik interjected and directed criticism at Polish television:
You used one sentence: these are enormous sums that are sticking to the United States. I understand your show is called Telewizja Prawa i Sprawiedliwości.
The host did not hesitate and suggested that both the guest and the host use terms that reflect the environment from which they come. Maciejewski replied:
You can call our television whatever you want. I could also call your coalition not the Third Way, but the Third Leg — in reference to Tusk. So let’s strike a deal: you call it “PiS television,” and we talk about your party, which could be described as “Tusk’s Third Leg.”
After a moment, the participants clarified that a hearing oversight had caused the exchange to flare up. Yet the tension remained high, with the debate peppered by forceful slogans and stern accusations.
Viewers are invited to watch the interview; the segment described above appears around the sixth minute of the recording.
