You can demonstrate that this text is in the public domain or is already under a license suitable for Wikipedia.
Explain this on this article's discussion page, with reference to evidence. Wikipedia:Public domain and Wikipedia:Compatibly licensed may assist in determining the status.

Your rewrite should be placed on this page, where it will be available for an administrator or clerk to review it at the end of the listing period. Follow this link to create the temporary subpage.

  • Simply modifying copyrighted text is not sufficient to avoid copyright infringement—if the original copyright violation cannot be cleanly removed or the article reverted to a prior version, it is best to write the article from scratch. (See Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing.)
  • For license compliance, any content used from the original article must be properly attributed; if you use content from the original, please leave a note at the top of your rewrite saying as much. You may duplicate non-infringing text that you had contributed yourself.
  • It is always a good idea, if rewriting, to identify the point where the copyrighted content was imported to Wikipedia and to check to make sure that the contributor did not add content imported from other sources. When closing investigations, clerks and administrators may find other copyright problems than the one identified. If this material is in the proposed rewrite and cannot be easily removed, the rewrite may not be usable.

Publicist

Michalkiewicz is the author of political columns and articles published in newspapers and magazines such as Najwyższy Czas!, Powściągliwość i Praca, Nasza Polska, Nasz Dziennik, Gazeta Polska, Dziennik Polski, Niezależna Gazeta Polska, Goniec and others. He has published several sociopolitical books. His feature articles are transmitted by Polskie Radio Program I (Polish Radio One), Radio Maryja and TV channel Telewizja Trwam.

On 27 March 2006 speaking on Radio Maryja, he made anti-Semitic remarks when he said that "Jews are trying to force a ransom from our government which they covertly call restitution". Michalkiewicz also said the country was being "humiliated" by Jews "at the site of the former death camp Auschwitz" and in April, 2006, was reported in Gazeta Wyborcza as stating that "men from Judea ... are trying to surprise us from behind", and referring to the World Jewish Congress as "a main firm in the Holocaust Industry". Michalkiewicz responded by calling Gazeta Wyborcza "an unusual example of the Jewish fifth column in Poland" and "a Jewish newspaper for Poles". He was investigated by prosecutors for "publicly insulting members of the population due to their nationality".[5] However, in September 2006 prosecutors dropped the charges as while Michalkiewicz belittled the facts of the Holocaust he was not criminally culpable for denying Nazi crimes.[6] Following the Michalkiewicz affair, the Vatican expressed its deep concern and urged Polish bishops to take action to keep the station under control.[7][8][9]

In 2018, Michalkiewicz caused outrage when he equated a rape survivor with a whore. The woman, who had been raped when she was 13 years old, won a 1 million złoty verdict against the religious order of the perpetrator priest Roman Behrendt who was also sentenced to eight years in jail. The rape victim later sued Michalkiewicz for defamation, and won a 150,000 złoty verdict against him.[10][11][12] After the verdict against Michalkiewicz, he said he learned about the trial only when his bank account was seized. Michalkiewicz also published the protected personal identifying information of the victim on his website. The rape victim responded by saying she sued Michalkiewicz since she was not a whore but a child when she was raped by the priest, and that Michalkiewicz publishing her personal data is an act of revenge.[13]

In 2019, Polish Australians and Jewish Australian community leaders protested Michalkiewicz's invitation to Australia by the Nasza Polonia group, due to his provocative statements on Jews and the Holocaust.[14][15][16][17]
