Polish president signs bill putting state media under government control

a reply to: deliberator

Very soon he will be abolishing elections and will appoint himself as the supreme leader of the nation Hail the new dictatorship.

Now, it seems that the people in the nation is not having any problems with all this, so if the people likes what is going on with their government who are we to complain.

If you have state media, would you not expect it to be under government control? Is that not what state media is? The debate here seems to be what part of the Government controls it. So long as other media is allowed to do as they wish I do not see a major issue with it.
