DISINFO: No positive news about Russia in the mainstream Polish media

SUMMARY

One of the key reasons for problematic relations between Poland and Russia is the fact that the Polish media spread only negative information about Russia. In recent years, the mainstream Polish media have not published a single positive news article about Russia.

RESPONSE

This misleading statement is aimed to spread the message that Polish society is actively misinformed by the mainstream media – it is part of the pro-Kremlin narrative that the Western elites and mainstream media artificially create hostility against Russia. See a similar case here. The most popular Polish media present various news about Russia, negative, neutral and positive in tone. See examples of news about Russia, the Russians and Russian culture published by the Polish media here and here.

Disclaimer

Cases in the EUvsDisinfo database focus on messages in the international information space that are identified as providing a partial, distorted, or false depiction of reality and spread key pro-Kremlin messages. This does not necessarily imply, however, that a given outlet is linked to the Kremlin or editorially pro-Kremlin, or that it has intentionally sought to disinform. EUvsDisinfo publications do not represent an official EU position, as the information and opinions expressed are based on media reporting and analysis of the East Stratcom Task Force.
