1 Komedia zamierzonych pomyłek? Paweł Mańkowski , 1998 single work column
— Appears in: Polish Kurier , March-April vol. 12 no. 126-127 1998; (p. 43-44)

Mańkowski begins the column with reference to state propaganda in Communist Poland, which, he writes, invariably drew laughter from readers and viewers for its pomposity and absurdity. He then goes on to quote some critical comments by the head of the Rada Naczelna Polskich Organizacji w Australii (the Chief Council of Polish Organizations in Australia) about Polish Australian television program 'Oto Polska' (This is Poland) and about Perth-based Polish Australian radio program 'Radio Kurier', and to compare the tone of these comments to the arrogance of the official media in Communist Poland. (The radio program 'Radio Kurier' is affiliated with the periodical Polish Kurier, in which this column appears.)
