The petitioner complains that censorship was applied to a live broadcast aired on Polish public radio. She claims that on request of the director a song with a political statement was taken off the charts despite the fact that it won the most votes from the audience. She explains that the recording of the broadcast was removed from the internet and the result of the vote was changed. Consequently, a journalist, who did not want to sign off the manipulation, was fired and other renowned journalists left the station in protest against the censorship and the dismissal. The petitioner would like the Commission to make a statement about the censorship of the broadcast based on the fact that the freedom of speech, liberty of thought and expression are fundamental rights of the EU.
