The 21st century has modified the face of media to a significant extent. The process of mediatization and tabloidization of politics, which has become dependent in its functions on mass media communication and which is continuously shaped by interactions with them, provided politicians with an opportunity to gain fame and find themselves in the group of celebrities. Candidates, similarly to stars, seek popularity by taking part in numerous TV programs, not only in those of publicist character, but also in the entertainment ones, where recognition and popularity does not arise from achievements but from approval of audience. Reach of traditional TV news and publicist programs is decreasing, which means that significance for public discourse is lowering as well. This situation caused emergence of a new phenomenon called infotainment, and in case of political discourse – politainment, where political debates bear hallmarks of a performance directed at consumers instead of citizens.
