News
They have this TV station here called TVN 24 - yes it is original, isn't it? - devoted to news only. I happened to catch sight of it over the tremendously boring Easter holidays here. As befits a creative industry, they have copied the western habit of having a ticker tape at the bottom of the screen with news headlines on it to distract you from the talking head on the top half of the screen. And what alarming news there was when I looked: "Jesus Christ crucified," it said. Only 2007 years late.

I thought he lived to be 33, in which case this means that TVN 24 are only about 1974 years too late. (I say 'about' because Wikipedia reckons he was born a few years Before Christ (i.e. before himself), which I reckon is proof enough that he was a really amazing dude.) In any case, though, your error is yet another example of foreigners attempting to besmirch the reputation of the Polish media. jk
