On Monday, August 9, TVN24 celebrated its 20th birthday. Morning and afternoon were full memories, anecdotes and interviews with well-known journalists, as well as those who work everyday behind the scenes. Here's how we celebrated our 20th anniversary.
On August 9, TVN24 celebrated its 20th birthday. Exactly 20 years earlier, at noon, the first news service was broadcast. To mark the occasion, we prepared a special programme on Monday, in which our journalists, reporters, as well as people who work behind the scenes, shared their stories and details of their work in TVN24.
Our regional teams prepared short videos showing their work and showed how they celebrated the 20th anniversary in live entries.
TVN24 and "Fakty" TVN Editor-in-Chief Michał Samul shared his recollection of 2001 when TVN24 had been created.
"Time went by faster than we'd expected. We should look at it with pride and joy. We've accomplished much, there's a fantastic team behind the success," he said.
"TVN24 was, is and will be. There's no reason to think otherwise. All those who think we can be silenced, that TVN24 can be ended, will not succeed. We will survive and keep on broadcasting," Michał Samul vowed.
At noon, just like 20 years ago, Anita Werner hosted a news service.
Meanwhile, employees working at TVN24 headquarters in Warsaw gathered right next to the studio, in a room where morning show hosts greet viewers. After short speeches by Michał Samul and Kasia Kieli, they all shared a huge cake with TVN24 logo.
At the end of the special news service, Anita Werner connected with people working remotely, while those present moved to the TVN24 studio.
