Yep, seems that they didn't read the report.

"Z uwag do raportu MAK i stenogramu wynika, że na wysokości 100 m prezydencki tupolew był 2400 m od progu pasa. I leciał na niej przez 8 sekund."

They still claim that the plane leveled off at 100 meters and flew horizontally for 8 seconds and we know it's not true.

After reading the article I have a feeling that Wyborcza might be trying to skew some facts. They are saying that new analysis of CVR revealed cpt Protasiuk saying "odchodzimy" (go-around) at exactly the same moment as first "pull-up" from TAWS. But the truth may be that this was a question directed to Blasik, like "odchodzimy?" (are we to go-around?). The only difference in Polish regarding statements and questions is the pronounciation of this single word. Delayed or no answer from Blasik (if that was a question) might have caused the following crew state of indecision -- but please note that this is my pure speculation. Unless I can (or we all can) hear it, we can only say "the truth is out there".
