\n

Opposition leader Dragan \u0110ilas, whose list finished in second place in the local Belgrade elections, twice banned representatives of several media outlets from attending his press conferences, prompting sharp controversy among the public.<\/h2>\n

Access was denied to journalists of pro-government daily newspapers Alo, Srpski Telegraf, Informer and Ve\u010dernje Novosti, as well as television companies TV Pink and Studio B.<\/p>\n

According to \u0110ilas, these journalists publish nonsense and lies about him every day \u201con the orders of Vu\u010di\u0107\u201d, and they are not journalists but rather \u201can extension of the hand of the state and the government that is introducing us to fascism\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Culture and Information, along with the two largest journalists\u2019 associations, condemned this act as discrimination against journalists, while the Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS) pointed out that \u201cnobody, not even \u0110ilas, is authorised to decide who is and isn\u2019t a journalist\u201d.<\/p>\n

Renowned journalists Tamara Skrozza and Maja Divac, however, consider that in a media environment where a single-minded government rules, individuals have been left with no other option in the fight against pro-government media, so this move is \u201can understandable and forced reaction\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Law on Public Information prohibits discrimination against editors and journalists, particularly with regard to their political affiliations and beliefs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
