Radio Maryja - Supporters and Their Response To Criticism

Supporters and Their Response To Criticism

The former cabinet of Jarosław Kaczyński openly supported Radio Maryja. In December 2006, Kaczyński joined the 15th anniversary celebrations of Radio Maryja and praised the station as a source of "comfort and hope", warning that "an attack on Radio Maryja is an attack against freedom."

Enthusiasts of the station claim that Radio Maryja is a target of the media which have waged a "smear campaign". A Support Team of Radio Maryja has been formed "in the service of God, the Church, Homeland and the Polish Nation".

Famous quotes containing the words supporters, response and/or criticism:

    The opposition is indispensable. A good statesman, like any other sensible human being, always learns more from his opponents than from his fervent supporters. For his supporters will push him to disaster unless his opponents show him where the dangers are. So if he is wise he will often pray to be delivered from his friends, because they will ruin him. But though it hurts, he ought also to pray never to be left without opponents; for they keep him on the path of reason and good sense.
    Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    Eyes seeking the response of eyes
    Bring out the stars, bring out the flowers,
    Thus concentrating earth and skies
    So none need be afraid of size.
    All revelation has been ours.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    ... criticism ... makes very little dent upon me, unless I think there is some real justification and something should be done.
    Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
