TVN24 is a Polish 24-hour commercial news channel, launched on 9 August 2001. Being a part of the TVN Network, TVN24 has been owned since 2018 by US-based media company Warner Bros. Discovery (Discovery, Inc. before 2022). It gained broader popularity after the September 11, 2001 attacks in the US, which was the first major incident to be covered by TVN24. It is available over all digital platforms in Poland (Polsat Box and Platforma Canal+) as well as in most cable networks and some networks in other countries, including USA (Dish Network) and Germany. The audio portion of the channel can be streamed on the internet.

Launched on 30 November 2012, TVN24 is the longest-established HD news channel in Poland and East-Central Europe.

The TVN24 team is also responsible for the TVN flagship newscast, Fakty TVN. During major events (such as September 11 attacks, Pope John Paul II's death, the Polish presidential plane crash, Lex TVN controversy and Russian invasion of Ukraine), TVN24 is retransmitted by TVN which has much wider broadcast range.

On 6 February 2018, the European Commission approved the Discovery (now Warner Bros. Discovery) acquisition deal. Since Liberty Global, which operates pay television services in Poland under the UPC Polska brand, is a major shareholder in Discovery Inc, EU competition law required that Discovery ensures the continued availability of TVN24 and TVN24 BiS to third-party TV providers.

Since December 2019, the station has been overseen by Michał Samul.

Editorial stance and reception

The company's headquarters in Warsaw, 2017.

TVN24 tends to be strongly critical of the Polish government under the Law and Justice (PiS) party. Historian and columnist Timothy Garton Ash has praised Fakty TVN, writing that it is far more professional than Telewizja Polska's (TVP) Wiadomości (News). Ash wrote in 2019: "The Facts is not BBC-style impartial: it clearly favours a more liberal, pro-European Poland and is strongly anti-PiS. But unlike the so-called News, it is still definitely professional, high quality, reality-based journalism."
