Andrzej Morozowski, veteran TVN24 journalist, dies at 69
Andrzej Morozowski, a leading Polish journalist and publicist, died on 4 August 2026 at the age of 69 after a prolonged battle with cancer. Born on 13 June 1957 in Warsaw, he began his career in the 1980s, working for Radio Zet and TVP before joining TVN24 at its launch in 2001. Over more than two decades he anchored and hosted a range of political and public‑affairs programmes, including "Tak jest", "Teraz my!", "Studio 24", "Kuluary" and "Skaner polityczny". He was widely recognised with awards such as Grand Press, the Woyciechowski prize and the Telekamer.
Morozowski’s death prompted an outpouring of tributes from colleagues, politicians and former interviewees. TVN24 aired a special segment before the next edition of "Tak jest", showing archival footage, a minute of silence and a symbolic empty chair in the studio. Colleagues such as Tomasz Sianecki, Monika Olejnik, Anita Werner and Piotr Marciniak expressed personal grief and highlighted his professionalism, curiosity and respect for interview subjects. The story dominated Polish media coverage, underscoring his influence on contemporary political journalism.
