ADMINISTRACJI PUBLICZNEJ WSPÓŁPRACA Z PRASĄ – PRZYKRA KONIECZNOŚĆ CZY SZANSA?
PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION COOPERATION WITH THE PRESS – AN UNPLEASANT NECESSITY OR AN OPPORTUNITY?

Summary/Abstract: The subject of the article is an analysis of the issue of cooperation between public administration and the press – its legal basis as well as its current condition in the reality of social life. The press is an entity operating in the administrative environment, cooperation with which may support carrying out of public administration tasks. The argument for such a perspective in analyzing this issue is the fact that the aims of both entities’ activities – public administration and the press – are essentially the same; it is the public interest and the welfare of citizens. Therefore, the cooperation between public administration and the press may become an instrument for improving the organization and functioning of the administrative apparatus, strengthening its transparency and the confidence of citizens in the activities of public administration. The evaluation of this cooperation is directly related to the practice of public administration and the level of freedom of the press in Poland.
