Polsat News 2 (formerlyTV Biznes,Polsat Biznes andPolsat News +) is a Polish publicist-information television channel. It complements the main sister channelPolsat News, with in-depth commentary. It broadcasts programs devoted to national, foreign, political, economic and cultural events.
The channel was created in September 2004 asTV Biznes. The founder and owner of TV Biznes was ProfessorPiotr Chomczyński and Piotr Barełkowski. On 8 February 2007Telewizja Polsat became the owner of the channel. On 18 February 2013 TV Biznes was renamedPolsat Biznes.
On 9 June 2014 at 10 am, the channel was relaunched asPolsat News +. The plus sign was saved in the same way as in thePlus mobile logo, having the same owner as Polsat. However, on 31 July 2014, the name was changed toPolsat News 2 following a lawsuit filed byPolsat withITI Neovision, the owner of the competingnc+ platform.[1] SinceITI Neovision has the plus sign (taken from its main shareholderCanal+) all its own channels, the District Court has decided to secure the suit for the duration of the ongoing process by orderingPolsat to change its name. In November 2014, the Court of Appeal reviewed Polsat's appeal and overturned the previous decision, allowing the channel to be restored to its current name. Polsat has not yet decided on a possible renaming of the channel.[2] In December 2014 the District Court in Warsaw issued a judgment which dismissed the suitnc+ in its entirety, but the verdict is not legally binding.[3] However, the Court has forbidden the platform to use the "+" symbol in the name of the channel Polsat News + and the programme+ Kultura. In addition to the prohibition, the court ordered the TV station falsity to announce that it can not use the+ sign in its channels.
In June 2018, the company stopped producing and broadcasting its own programs.
On 30 August 2021, the channel adopted a new logo, as a part of corporate-wide rebranding of Grupa Polsat Plus.[4]
From 16 April 2024 the channel is available in HD quality.[5]
