ANEM'S WEEKLY REPORT ON MEDIA REPRESSION IN SERBIAMARCH 11, - MARCH 17, 2000.STATION CLOSED IN NIGHT RAID AFTER PUBLIC DEFENCE IN DAYLIGHTBELGRADE, March 12, 2000 Telecommunications ministry inspectors delivered a ministry ruling on Saturday afternoon, ordering RTV Pozega to cease operating immediately. The ruling gave the justification that the station owed money for frequency fees and that it was operating without a licence. As the station had regularly paid licence fees, the management informed its viewers of the situation. Several hundred people gathered near the Pozega studios to defend the station. During the ensuing stand-off, the outraged protesters slightly damaged the car in which the inspectors had driven from Belgrade. As the inspectors attempted to effect the shutdown in spite of the protests, Milenko Vukovic, the father of an RTV Pozega employee, suffered a heart attack and died. The inspectors left the town after being prevented from seizing RTV Pozega equipment. The station's general manager, Predrag Spasojevic, was called in for police interrogation and later released. The protesters remained in front of the station's studio long into the night. However, after they had dispersed, at about 3.20 a.m., about fifteen local police broke into the station's transmitter building and seized equipment while another group of police blocked the entrance to the location where RTV Pozega journalists where gathered. In his statement yesterday, the Federal Telecommunications Minister presented
a number of misinterpretations about the RTV Pozega closedown. He claimed that
the car used by the inspectors had been "demolished by hooligans" and
that one of the inspectors had been "beaten with metal bars". An
eyewitness said that the only damage done to the car was a broken wing mirror.
RTV Pozega said today that they had done their best to protect the inspectors,
who left the town completely unharmed. OPPOSITION RALLY OF SUPPORT FOR SILENCED MEDIA IN CUPRIJACUPRIJA, March 12, 2000 -- Two and a half thousand people protested in the
centre of Cuprija on Saturday March 11 at the recent closure of local
broadcasters TV Nemanja and Radio Kir. The crowd greeted a proposal from
opposition leaders to demand that the Federal Telecommunications Ministry return
equipment confiscated from the stations within seven days and grant frequency
licences within thirty days. Failure to do so would result in new demonstrations
in defence of the independent media in Belgrade and other cities and towns in
Serbia. COMMITTEE TO PROTECT MEDIA ESTABLISHED IN BAJINA BASTABAJINA BASTA, March 12, 2000 -- The director of Radio Television Bajina Basta, Boban Tomic, said today that a Committee to Protect Media had been established in the town. Tomic said described the members of the committee as prominent and respectable local citizens of all political affiliations. The committee's aim is to prepare possible defences in the case of an attack on RTV Bajina Basta. "We've been closely following the itinerary of the media shutdown squad
from Pomoravlje to Pozega and we're now not quite sure whether they're headed
towards Bajina Basta or have returned to Belgrade after completing their job in
Pozega," said Tomic. He added that if RTS Bajina Basta were closed a public
address system would be in operation in the town as well as public video
projections while some of the station's operations would be moved across the
border to the Bosnian Serb Republic. JAILED EDITOR TO BE PAROLED THIS WEEKBELGRADE, March 13, 2000 -- Nebojsa Ristic, the jailed editor-in-chief of Sokobanja's TV Soko, will be released from Zajecar prison 26 days before serving his 12 month prison term. Ristic this week confirmed that he had received a document from the Serbian Justice Ministry's Parole Board advising that he would be released on parole on Friday March 17. "Given the fact that the prisoner has served more than half his term and that his behaviour has improved it may be expected that he will conduct himself properly after his release and will not commit any criminal offence. The Parole Board therefore finds that the conditions set out in Article 9 of the Serbian Criminal Code have been met and the prisoner is to be released on the condition of his sustained lawful behaviour," said the Parole Board. Ristic was sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment in April last year for
having displayed on the premises of TV Soko a Radio B 92 "Free Press, made
in Serbia" poster and a poster from the student movement Otpor (Resistance). MEDIA DEFENCE CAMPAIGNBELGRADE, March 13, 2000 -- The Democratic Party's youth arm is to mount a
Media Defence Campaign in several Serbian municipalities today. The Party has
announced that the campaign will take place in Novi Sad, Kragujevac, Leskovac,
Pozega, Valjevo, Saab and two locations in Belgrade. During the campaign,
150,000 leaflets will be distributed. PROTEST IN POZEGA OVER BROADCAST CLOSUREPOZEGA, March 13, 2000 -- More than 2,000 residents of Pozega demonstrated today in support of an ultimatum by Mayor Tihomir Marjanovic to Belgrade authorities to return equipment confiscated from Radio Television Pozega within seven days. The rally was organised by the local Municipal Assembly and the RTV Pozega employees' union. Police pulled RTV Pozega off the air in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Both Radio Pozega and TV Pozega are members of the Association of Independent
Electronic Media. Radio Pozega Editor-in-Chief Branko Nikolic said that the
police blocked the entrance to a cafe where journalists were meeting before
breaking into the RTV premises. "The police climbed to the top of the
building, demolished the door leading to the transmitter and removed almost all
the equipment they found there. We have been unable to broadcast the radio
program since then but our viewers can receive the television transmission via
cable. There are many people who have cable television receivers, however the
transmitter is no longer operational so there is no television signal,e said
Nikolic. PROTESTS IF STUDIO B CLOSED: OPPOSITION WARNSBELGRADE, March 14, 2000 -- Opposition leaders have called on Belgraders to protest if the regime puts city broadcaster Studio B off the air. The rallies will be organised in front of the Municipal Assembly at 3.00 pm the day after any closure of Studio B, democratic opposition leaders announced after a meeting in Belgrade on Monday. Studio B was given a deadline of midnight yesterday to pay almost half a
million Deutschmarks in fees for frequency use. The station's management has
several times sought an itemised statement of this debt from the
Telecommunications Ministry, but no response has been received. MEDIA DEFENCE COMMITTEE ESTABLISHED IN PIROTPIROT, March 14, 2000 -- A committee to protect local radio and television
stations was set up in Pirot yesterday. Mayor Tomislav Panajotovic said that the
committee had been formed to protect independent media from the regimee s
repression. "After what's happened to Studio B, TV Nemanja in Cuprija and
TV Pozega, there are many reasons to fear that other stations, including RTV
Pirot, will be attacked," said Panajotovic. YUGOSLAV ARMY BREAKS LEASE TO EVICT NIS TELEVISIONNIS, March 14, 2000 -- The Yugoslav Army has given Nis TV 5 notice to vacate
the premises it rents from the local army establishment by April 25. TV 5
reported yesterday that the local army command had terminated the lease contract
on its premises. In a letter to TV 5, the army justified the move by explaining
that it intended to turn an unprofitable building into apartments. TV 5
Editor-in-chief Slavica Nikolic-Corbic said that there were no legal grounds for
cancellation of the contract and that the eviction represented continued
pressure from the regime on media outside its control. RTV POZEGA TO DEFY BANPOZEGA, March 14, 2000 -- The Municipal Assembly of Pozega, meeting in an extraordinary session yesterday, decided that RTV Pozega should continue to broadcast, despite a banning order received from the Federal Telecommunications Ministry. About 200 local residents yesterday attended the meeting which was boycotted by representatives of the Socialist Party of Serbia. The Assembly also demanded that the state return confiscated transmission
equipment within seven days. The city will also file an appeal against the ban
on the work of the broadcaster. Radio Pozega will resume broadcasting today and
the television program will continue to be broadcast on the local cable network
and possibly also on a less powerful transmitter. TANJUG SEEKS 1.5 MILLION DINAR DAMAGES FROM DANASBELGRADE, March 14, 2000 -- State news agency Tanjug, together with its acting director, Dusan Djordjevic, yesterday filed criminal charges in the First Belgrade Municipal Court seeking damages of 1.5 millions dinars from independent daily Danas. Tanjug and Djordjevic allege that their reputation and interests were damaged by the article "Funeral without a Patriarch" published in Danas, over which the daily has already been fined 270,000 dinars under the Public Information Act. Summonses for the hearing, scheduled for April 12, have been delivered to the
Dan Graf publishing house, editor Veseljko Koprivica and writer Tamara Kaliterna.
"In this country where anything can happen we're not surprised by Tanjug's
latest move," said Grujica Spasovic, Danas editor-in-chief today, adding
that they would accept the court summons as they had more faith in the criminal
courts than in the magistrates who heard misdemeanour charges under the Public
Information Act. " In my view this is an attempt by the regime to destroy
our publication completely, as opposed to the systematic financial pressure so
far exerted by the authorities," added Spasovic. DEMOCRATIC PARTY OFFICIAL IN COURTBELGRADE, March 14, 2000 -- Democratic Party official Cedomir Jovanovic gave evidence yesterday at the first hearing of criminal proceedings brought against him by the First Municipal Public Prosecutor's Office, acting on a complaint by Deputy Information Minister Radmila Visic. Deputy Public Prosecutor Jasmina Milanovic alleged that Jovanovic, as the person responsible for the printing and distribution of the civil protest bulletin Promene (Changes), had published untruths about the Deputy Information Minister which could damage her reputation and honour as a person in public office. Jovanovic entered a not guilty plea and argued that he was not responsible for publishing Promene and had no connection with the articles which were the subject of the complaint. The hearing will resume on April 20 to hear evidence from Visic. HIGHER COURT DISMISSES ABC GRAFIKA APPEALBELGRADE, March 14, 2000 -- The Belgrade Higher Commercial Court has
dismissed an appeal by ABC Grafika against bankruptcy proceedings initiated by
the Belgrade Commercial Court, the Labour Union and ABC Grafika Creditors'
Council announced today. The Higher Commercial Court also upheld the ruling of
the Commercial Court rejecting an agreement between ABC Grafika and its
creditors allowing the firm to trade out of debt. The Belgrade Commercial Court
began bankruptcy proceedings on January 27 after ruling that the firm was unable
to meet obligations of approximately 82 million dinars to its creditors. CHARGES AGAINST KIKINDSKE NOVINE REHEARDKIKINDA, March 14, 2000 -- Kikinda Municipal Magistrate Ljubica Batricevic yesterday began rehearing charges brought by local state media editor Rajko Popovic against local daily Kikindske novine. A court of appeal in Novi Sad ruled recently that the case be reopened after Batricevic had initially dismissed the charges. The complainant, Popovic, is a local official of the ruling Socialist Party of Serbia. Batricevic adjourned the case to March 15 to hear evidence from Popovic. The
charges relate to articles published by Kikindske novine on December 24 last
year. NIS ESTABLISHES COMMITTEE FOR DEFENCE OF INDEPENDENT MEDIANIS, March 14, 2000 -- A joint meeting of democratic opposition parties, NGOs and unions yesterday established a committee for the defence of independent media in Nis. Spokesman Zoran Kojevic told media that the committee had been established for fear of the "executioners" knocking on the door of free media outlets in the city. Nis University academic Dragan Corbic said that the defence of the free media
was a case of anything goes. "If they attack us physically, we'll defend
physically; if they use economic measures, we'll use the economy in defence,"
said Corbic, adding that Nis would defend its media and it was up to the public
whether that defence would succeed because there was no more important task for
the Serbian democratic public than defending media outlets. CITY PAYS GOVERNMENT HALF MILLION DM FOR STUDIO BBELGRADE, March 15, 2000 -- The Belgrade City Assembly, as proprietor of Radio Television Studio B, today paid the Yugoslav Ministry of Telecommunications almost half a million Deutschmarks in fees for "temporary frequency use", the station's director, Dragan Kojadinovic, said today. Kojadinovic quoted Mayor Vojislav Mihailovic as saying that the Assembly had paid the disputed fees in order to keep police and ministry inspectors out of Studio B's premises and to avoid conflict between state bodies and the defenders of the city television. City Vice-President Bojan Dimitrijevic said today that the decision was made by the city's executive board. e We've done our best to squeeze some funds from our meagre budget for 2000 and meet Studio B's financial obligations, thus eliminating any formal reasons for banning the operation of the city's radio and television station. Anything which happens after this will be some sort of naked plunder of the local media by the regime," said Dimitrijevic. After Studio B's debt was paid, Federal Telecommunications Minister Ivan
Markovic invited Studio B Director Dragan Kojadinovic to attend a meeting
scheduled for today at 11.00 am. "Iote ve accepted Minister Markovic's
invitation precisely because the city assembly has paid the debt to establish
the conditions for communication between Studio B and the Federal
Telecommunications Ministry," said Kojadinovic. POLICE TO BE USED IN FREQUENCY LICENCE FEE COLLECTIONBELGRADE, March 15, 2000 -- The Federal Telecommunications Ministry will use police backup to collect all overdue radio and television licence fees by March 31, Minister Ivan Markovic said today. ote The same rules apply to Studio B as to other broadcasters with temporary licences," Markovic told a press conference. He added that the Studio B television link was operating without a proper licence on the 1299.5 MHz frequency.. The minister went on to give a political evaluation of the work of the Belgrade city broadcaster. "There's no difference between Studio B and the so-called opposition parties. We're talking here about foreign mercenaries without morality and without honour, just like their bosses. This becomes obvious when you look at the number of lies they disseminate daily. The state has no intention of making excuses, either to such people or to anyone else. We'll continue doing our job. When it comes to the role of the Internal Affairs Ministry, they're obliged to gi! ve us protection in carrying out our task. The police don't confiscate transmitters. We take the transmitters: the police are there to protect us." Markovic reiterated his allegations against NATO concerning the jamming of Studio B's signal, alleging that NATO programs broadcast from neighbouring countries were effectively jamming the Studio B signal, but added that these problems could be solved if Studio B were willing to cooperate with state bodies. According to the minister, 168 radio and 67 television stations are operating without licences and these owe more than 120 million dinars in fees for the period from June 1998 to February 2000. Markovic also said that his ministry had brought criminal charges after a federal telecommunications inspector was beaten in Pozega while attempting to execute a ministry banning order on a local broadcaster. Asked whether the federal government would intervene on Montenegrin territory
if the media there failed to meet their financial obligations to the ministry,
the minister said that the Federal Telecommunications Ministry made no
distinction between frequency users in Serbia and Montenegro, adding that
Montenegro respected the authority of federal organs. POLICE BAN MEMBERSHIP OF MEDIA DEFENCE COMMITTEEBAJINA BASTA, March 15, 2000 -- Police in Bajina Basta yesterday prevented
members of the public from joining the Committee for Defence of the Media
recently established as part of Radio Television Bajina Basta. The station's
director, Boban Tomic, said that police demanded yesterday afternoon that the
station management cancel an official joining ceremony in a public place with
the justification that there was no proper documentation for the event. The
organisers of the joining ceremony moved to the privately owned premises of RTV
Bajina Basta. Tomic added that more than a thousand citizens interested in
defending media throughout the country had already joined the committee. DANAS PHOTOGRAPHER DETAINEDVRANJE, March 15, 2000 -- Belgrade daily Danas photographer Tanja Valic was
taken into custody in the south Serbian city of Vranje today. Valic, who was
photographing the local post office at the time she was detained, was arrested
after security guards at the building reported to police. She told media that
she was treated with civility during her two hours of questioning at a local
police station and that her film was not confiscated. No explanation was given
for the arrest and interrogation. INDEPENDENT MEDIA BANNED FROM PARLIAMENT MEETINGBELGRADE, March 15, 2000 -- Journalists from several independent and private media organisations were today refused entry to the Serbian Parliament's Administrative Committee meeting, despite having been earlier informed of the session. Parliament security guards turned away representatives of Radio B2 92, Beta news agency and the dailies Blic and Danas. The journalists were given no explanation. Beta reports unofficial sources as saying that the Serbian Radical Party had insisted that independent journalists be banned. Radical Party President Vojislav Seselj had earlier warned on February 17
that his party had resolved to ban journalists from "the treacherous
media" from party press conferences and meetings, including meetings of
local government or state bodies chaired by Radical Party representatives. The
same media, he added, would be not receive statements from party officials. INTERNATIONAL MEDIA REPRESENTATIVE SLAMS REPRESSIONBELGRADE, March 15, 2000 - The secretary-general of the International
Federation of Journalists, Aidan White, today accused the authorities in Serbia
of applying "unbearable pressure" to media not under their control,
describing this as a systematic attack "dressed in bureaucratic and
allegedly legal procedures". In an interview for the Belgrade Media Centre,
White, who was last week refused a visa by Yugoslav authorities, strongly
condemned the closure of local radio stations and newspapers, the jamming of
Studio B Television and the brutal implementation of the Public Information Act,
demanding that such repression "be stopped as soon as possible". STATE ORDERS INDEPENDENT DAILIES TO CUT SALES PRICEBELGRADE, March 15, 2000 -- Belgrade dailies Blic and Glas javnosti have reduced their prices by 25 per cent to six dinars on the orders of trade inspectors. Blic told its readers today that, because the inspectors had not ordered its printer and newsprint suppliers to make similar price cuts, the paper now made a loss of almost half a dinar per copy on printing costs alone. The paper's board said that there was no way to compensate for this loss and it therefore considered the price order as part of the systematic destruction of the newspaper. Glas javnosti described the price cut as a desperate act which had not been
carried out voluntarily by the company. With the price fixed at six dinars, Glas
told its readership, the paper was facing economic ruin and could not last for
more than a few days. MINISTER SHEDS NEW LIGHT ON FREQUENCY LICENCESBELGRADE, March 15, 2000 -- Studio B Director Dragan Kojadinovic today met Federal Telecommunications Minister Ivan Markovic for what he described as a fair discussion lasting some thirty minutes. Kojadinovic said that he had been given a new interpretation of broadcast frequency licences granted ten years ago according to which these were still valid and that only compensation for frequency use was in question. "We raised the issue of Channel 59, used by our affiliate in Mladenovac,te said Kojadinovic, "and were told to submit an application, with project documentation, for this frequency. We also raised the issue of our UHF Channel 53. This is our first licence and is due to expire in June this year. We were told that there should be no problem with this if an application is submitted to the ministry on time." An agreement was made at the meeting to resolve the problem of the channel
for the Studio B link within three days. The problem of TV Mladenovac was to be
solved by an application submitted to the ministry by Studio B. Kojadinovic also
raised the issue of disruption of Studio B's signal with Markovic. "Studio
B should remain cautious, as we received no concrete response with regard to the
jamming of our transmissions. Markovic repeated that the Studio B signal was
being disrupted from abroad. This is to be checked once again, including the
documentation we have already provided and we should then be given answers to a
number of questions we asked.lquote POZEGA MAYOR REFUTES MINISTERIAL STATEMENTPOZEGA, March 16, 2000 -- "I'm astonished at Federal Telecommunications Minister Ivan Markovic saying in public that local residents had beaten a federal inspector when he attempted to close RTV Pozega and that there had been illegal harassment,ote Pozega Mayor Tihomir Marjanovic said yesterday. Marjanovic described Markovic's statement as offensive and slanderous to all Pozega citizen, adding that the town's administration would press criminal charges against the minister. "It's an outrageous lie that local residents beat inspector Nebojsa
Marinkovic while protesting at his attempted seizure of RTV Pozega equipment and
that they demolished his car. He was not present when the public gathered in
front of the broadcaster's premises. At that time he was in the Pozega police
station," said Marjanovic, adding that he had met the inspector and spoken
to him in the presence of the Pozega police chief and his assistant. "No
one so much as touched the inspector," said Marjanovic, adding that the
inspector, when asked why he was carrying out the action, replied that he was
only doing what he had been ordered to do by Federal Telecommunications Minister
Ivan Markovic. TV PIROT TRANSMISSION EQUIPMENT STOLENBELGRADE, March 16, 2000 - RTV Pirot Director Boban Nikolic said today that TV Pirot's signal disappeared at about 8.00 am today. Nikolic set out for the station's transmitter on Sarlah Hill. On the way he passed a police vehicle and a green Mercedes carrying armed men, some of them in police uniforms, driving away from the location. On reaching the transmission facility he discovered a barbed wire fence cut, doors smashed and essential transmission equipment missing. A ministry inspection note and a ruling instructing RTV Pirot to cease broadcasting were attached to the broken door. It may therefore be concluded that the facility was broken into and the equipment seized by police and Yugoslav federal officials. ANEM views this break-in and seizure as obviously illegal, emphasising that
in recent months TV Pirot has been a frequent target of attacks from local
branches of the ruling coalition parties. As recently as yesterday the
state-controlled Belgrade daily Politika carried a denunciation by the Pirot
branch of the Socialist Party accusing the station of a "militant editorial
policy". This second ban on the station (the first occurred on April 21,
1998) is clearly politically motivated. MINISTRY CONFIRMS TV PIROT CLOSUREBELGRADE, March 17, 2000 -- The Federal Telecommunications Ministry yesterday
confirmed that it had closed down TV Pirot, adding that the station could resume
operating when it had met the legal conditions. The conditions referred to were
not specified. A statement issued by the ministry said only that the station had
been closed under the Federal Act on Telecommunications. Despite enquires to the
ministry yesterday, no one was available to give details of the articles of
federal legislation under which TV Pirot had been banned. CRIMINAL CHARGES AND PROTEST IN PIROTPIROT, March 17, 2000 -- The Committee for the Defence of RTV Pirot resolved
yesterday to press criminal charges against those responsible for removing
essential transmission equipment from the local television station and called on
citizens to defend the independent media. About two thousand local residents
last night attended a protest rally in Pozega's central square during which TV
Pirot's evening news program was screened in public. JOURNALISTS ASSOCIATION CALLS FOR PUBLIC MEDIA DEFENCEBELGRADE, March 17, 2000 -- The Association of Independent Serbian
Journalists yesterday called on the democratic public to defend the independent
media. "The number of banned independent media is increasing day by day and
it is obvious that the profession itself, media companies and journalists, can
achieve little when faced with such ferocious attacks by the regime. The entire
democratic public must defend the media. If this doesn't happen, Serbia, which
is already suffering from impaired vision and hearing, will sink into total
silence and blackout," said the Association in its statement. PROTEST AT MEDIA CLOSURES "TOO MUCH": SOCIALIST PARTYBELGRADE, March 17, 2000 -- Senior Socialist Party of Serbia official Nikola
Sainovic said yesterday that opposition announcements of organised defence of
the media were "a bit too muchlquote ... Sainovic, a deputy federal prime
minister, told media that the majority of broadcasters had no licences and were
not paying frequency fees. In response to the recent spate of thefts of
transmission equipment from independent broadcasters, Sainovic said that
criminals were probably responsible and that it the police were after them. CITY ASSEMBLY ADOPTS DECLARATION ON MEDIABELGRADE, March 17, 2000 -- Belgrade City Assembly yesterday adopted a
declaration strongly condemning the regime' s current assault on local and
independent media. The assembly also called on all citizens and all municipal
assemblies in the Belgrade area to use legal and democratic weapons to defend
the media from the regime's attempts to close them, said Serbian Renewal
Movement representative Ivan Kovacevic. The declaration was adopted by a vote of
56 to 1. City Assembly representatives from the Socialist Party of Serbia, the
Yugoslav United Left and the Serbian Radical Party were not present during the
vote. FUND TO PAY MEDIA FINESBELGRADE, March 17, 2000 -- Civil Alliance of Serbia President Goran
Svilanovic announced yesterday that opposition leaders at their meeting today
would discuss the establishment of a fund for supporting media companies fined
under the Public Information Act. The leaders will also discuss a proposal that
the opposition undertake joint efforts throughout Serbia to encourage citizens
and demonstrate their willingness to assist them. Svilanovic emphasised that it
was up to local citizens to make decisions about defending local broadcasters.
"If the public agreed to protect links and transmitter installations by
using their bodies as shields and thus deterring the police from using force,
they would be supported by the Civil Alliance of Serbia," said Svilanovic. JAILED TELEVISION EDITOR RELEASEDZAJECAR, March 17, 2000 -- Nebojsa Ristic, the editor-in-chief of Sokobanja's
TV Soko was released this morning from Zajecar prison after serving more than
eleven months of a one-year prison term. Ristic was convicted in April last year
of the criminal offence of disseminating false information under Article 218 of
the Serbian Criminal Code for having displayed the Radio B 92 poster ote Free
Press, Made in Serbia" and a poster from the student movement Otpor in his
office. Ristic has been released on parole, with 26 days of his sentence still
to serve. SERBIAN GOVERNMENT BATTLES RISING PRICESBELGRADE, March 17, 2000 - Socialist Party of Serbia spokesman Nikola Sainovic said today that the Serbian government was waging a fierce battle against rising prices. Asked to comment on government trade inspectors having ordered two daily newspapers to drop their prices despite spiralling printing costs and the Socialist Party's commitment to a market economy, Sainovic replied that all firms which wanted to raise prices had similarly stories and the government negotiated in the same way with all producers whether the product was milk, electricity or newsprint. He added that the price of newsprint was under control and had not risen so there was no need for newspapers to raise prices. One of the dailies ordered to drop its price, Glas javnosti, told its readers today that it was incur a loss of half a dinar per copy on printing costs alone without taking other overheads into consideration. Glas also reported that the price --- Further information on the media in Yugoslavia is available at: www.freeb92.net |
