The term "fake news" has been overused, but... we initially heard about hundreds of thousands of visas sold for bribes, now we know about maybe a couple hundred of visas issued with some - let's say - irregularities. No bribes found yet, even though it was the most high profile case in the country. So yeah.

Part of Orlen was sold to the Saudis to merge Orlen and Lotos (the exchange of gas stations with MOL was done for similar reasons) and to get better access to Saudi oil.

"Covid bribes" etc are probably mostly fake stories from Onet as well.
