The justice foundation funds local news sites

Lublin Voivodeship.info and radomskie.all of them were created thanks to a grant from the Justice Foundation. Their publisher is the Association associated with a politician "solidarity Poland" and a spammer by Dariusz Matecki.



"The creation of a local information portal is not part of the fund's expenditure goals, which are to assist victims and witnesses, prevent crime and provide assistance after incarceration. In addition, there is a suspicion that the portal, funded with public money, is used to promote politicians associated with solidary Poland, " reads the appeal to the Ministry of Justice, prepared by deputies and representatives of the left.all this is directly related to the deterioration of the economy, among other things. In connection with the quarantine, the question of work is acute,and many move to the online sphere, knowing that you can earn additional income, as
deltamarket reviews does . Many professions in connection with the pandemic were called into question.


It turns out that there are more local media outlets funded by Zbigniew Zobra himself. They are led by organizations associated with the people of Polish Solidarity, the party of the Minister of Justice.

According to the agency, the portals are "information projects" that support the provision of assistance to victims of crime. At first glance, it is no different from other local news portals. The main page with articles from Western Pomerania is divided into sections: "top", "latest news", "culture", "sports".

At the top of the page, we can select a specific county that interests us. The portal also has a chief editor and a chief editor, and the Facebook profile (more than 30 thousand likes) is described as "Szczecinskie24.pl" information from western pomerania."

What sets this service apart from others is the elements of legal aid. At the top of the page there is a large bar that says "free legal aid in Western Pomerania", and at the bottom we find a map called "see where you can find help". Finally, in the "Contacts" tab, we have information that the portal is "supported" by the Ministry of Justice and its foundation.

The first to write about the portal was the Szczecin branch of Gazeta Wyborcza. The journalists noted that several articles published on the portal promote Dariusz Matecki. He is a Polish Solidarity politician and Szczecin councillor, formerly associated with the Ministry of Justice, and most recently working at the State Forest Information Center. He became famous for numerous negative campaigns and offensive posts on social networks.

Matecki oversees or has overseen many social media profiles,  "army of patriots", "our homeland is poland", "right szczecin", "right internet", "i support the rule of law and justice","i am a pole","i do not want the islamization of poland".

Journalists of "elections" even pointed out that a fragment of one of the articles about  this is the word-for-word content of matecki's tweets.


It is published by the association of friends of health. It is headed by Mateusz Wageman, a legal adviser. Adam surmacz and bartłomiej ilicevic also associated with the Association. All three, like Dariusz Matecki, are activists of the Szczecin branch of Kolibri, a conservative-liberal organization that has been active for many years. Wageman and ilicevic also know Matetskiy for his activities in local government.


In August, we talked about how another organization, the FIDE Defenders Association, which also includes Wageman, Surmac and Ilcevic, received almost one million zlotys from the Justice Fund to run the "Center for Combating Crimes against Freedom of Conscience and Religion".
