The US Ambassador to Poland criticized the Polish broadcast regulator for questioning the ownership structure of US company TVN Style, which is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. The Polish National Broadcasting Council's inconclusive vote on TVN Style's license renewal raised concerns about breaking Polish and European law. The ambassador expressed that such actions undermine the investment climate and rule of law, while TVN defended its ownership structure and criticized the regulator's comments as an unlawful attack. This controversy stems from previous disputes involving TVN24 and the former nationalist Law and Justice government. Members of the ruling coalition parliament have submitted a motion to bring the head of the regulator before the State Tribunal over allegations of blocking financing for public media and licensing private broadcasters.
