The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal by the TV corporation against a fine imposed for broadcasting a film containing violent and vulgar content at 8:00 PM. The court found that the film's nature posed a probable threat to the development of minors, regardless of the broadcaster's claim that it was suitable only for parents' consent. Consequently, the court ruled that the statutory prohibition was violated because the content was clearly harmful and the broadcast time was strictly forbidden.

Art. 18 ust. 5 ustawy o radiofonii i telewizji; Art. 393 § 1 k.p.c.: The prohibition on broadcasting content threatening the development of minors applies when such a threat is probable, and the broadcaster's subjective assessment of suitability does not negate the objective violation if the content is inherently harmful.
