Journalism boils down to giving voice to those who are normally deprived of it. It is about capturing life far away from those on the top and in power.

„True journalism is characterized by intentionality; i.e. it pursues certain goals and attempts to bring about some sort of change. This is what it takes for journalism to be good”, said Ryszard Kapuściński. I couldn’t agree more.

What matters most in journalism? Curiosity. It is about being continuously astounded about the complexity of the world. Along with everlasting excitement that so much about the world is yet to be written and shown.

The cornerstone of political journalism is peeking behind the scenes of politics and revealing its secrets to the world. It is in the privacy of quiet offices where most crucial decisions are taken, impacting each one of us. It is our duty to reveal and explain them.

What I’m interested in is to keep an eye on the dealings of people in power. That is why the media are sometimes called the fourth estate – because they control the other three branches of government.

For me, journalism is a passion that lets me exert a tangible impact on what’s going on in public life around me and enables me to make a change for the better. To crown it all, I’m having a lot of fun practicing my profession.

Journalism? For me, it's more than a profession – it's a way of looking at the world. For people who are curious, dig deeper, and aren't satisfied with the first answer. It's also a responsibility that sometimes requires courage. I believe that journalism can still be a safeguard of democracy.
