She became well known for her interviews with politicians and other public individuals in "Salon Polityczny Trójki" (Political Salon of Channel 3).[2] In TVN Television she worked on the programme "Kropka nad i" ("Dot the i").[3] Since September 2004 she was an interviewer for "Prosto w oczy" ("Straight in the eyes"), a programme on Polish Television Channel I.[4]

One of the most influential Polish journalists in 1990s and 2000s.[5] The fact that her father, Tadeusz (1932–2015), was a major in the communist-period Ministry of Public Security, has made her a target of intense critique by the Polish right-wing politicians and journalists.[6]
