If you like a mix of religion and hard election campaigning, then @RadioMaryja is for you. Here is Antoni Macierewicz putting the opposition coalition in a history of subservience to foreign powers and warning that "LGBT anti-values" will rule if they win. radiomaryja.pl/informacje/tyl…
The conservative Catholic radio station also continues regularly to publish antisemitic conspiracy theories. Here a columnist suggests that the recent revelations of sexual abuse in the Church are part of plans to destroy it before a "Jewish occupation". radiomaryja.pl/multimedia/mys…
Father Tadeusz Rydzyk, the station's director, has his own theory, suggesting that there is a "paedophilia industry" [a reference to the so-called "Holocaust industry"] of people wanting to "make money on accusations of paedophilia and destroy the Church". naszdziennik.pl/polska-kraj/20…
Under the current ruling party, Rydzyk's various enterprises have received multiple lucrative state grants and he has had privileged access to government ministers and Jarosław Kaczyński. In return, his media outlets strongly support the ruling party.
Poland's Catholic Church, media and cultural institutions are diverse and divided. Many lay Catholics and clergy take a negative view of Rydzyk and of the more reactionary wings of the hierarchy. This division has been apparent in diverging reactions to the abuse revelations.
