Under the title „POLSKA” six regional dailies of Polskapresse and newly launched newspapers were melted to create the nationwide daily. „POLSKA” is the authorial project of Polskapresse and its debut is the biggest publishing event in the market in recent years. „POLSKA” is a nationwide daily with a strong regional identity and local news but at the same time with full, best quality national and world service as well as publicist part. „POLSKA” is the first and the only newspaper offering color thematic supplements every day.

- The strength of our title derives from the fact that since the beginning the whole editorial staff and hundreds of journalists scattered across the country have been working on the daily for the people. We have created a newspaper which doesn’t observe Poland only from Warsaw’s perspective and which doesn’t limit itself only to the interest in politics. Therefore a multitude of information on society from the whole country, color supplements every day and lots of handbooks. Therefore our tough approach to politicians who we will evaluate not on the basis of what they say but on the basis of what they really do for Poland- says Paweł F±fara, editor-in-chief of „POLSKA”.
The launch of „POLSKA" is a result of months of preparation thanks to which one of the most advanced publishing projects in Europe has been created which presents a new model of nationwide newspaper.
