Bureau of Information and Propaganda (Biuro Informacji i Propagandy)

The Bureau of Information and Propaganda (Biuro Informacji i Propagandy) was a department established during Poland's communist era, primarily responsible for controlling public communication. Its role involved managing the dissemination of government-approved news, information, and ideological messages to shape public perception and support policies. The bureau ensured that all media content aligned with state interests, often suppressing dissent or alternative viewpoints. Essentially, it functioned as a propaganda arm, coordinating efforts to influence public opinion and maintain the government’s narrative.
