The Media Council for Self-Regulation supports the dealing with all issues of public interest in the media, including the one recently tackled by the daily Pobjeda, writing about the work of a betting company. These days, the question of the relationship between the media and the companies with which they do business is once again open to the public. In order to be under pressure, a media outlet does not have to be attacked or sued. Sometimes it is quite enough to lose a job or an advertiser because they published something that someone did not like.
The Media Council for Self-Regulation (MSS) strongly condemns today's decision to ban journalists, videographers and photo-reporters from entering the plenary hall of the Parliament of Montenegro, on the day when an extraordinary session was scheduled, and the agenda of the proposal for the dismissal of Parliament Speaker, Andrija Mandić.
On September 15, a group of young journalists from Kosovo visited the Media Council for Self-Regulation (MSS), as part of the Media Fellowship Program organized by the OSCE Mission in Kosovo.
Draško Đuranović
The Media Council for Self-Regulation strongly condemns the threats addressed to the editor-in-chief of TV E, Draško Đuranović. We demand from the Police Administration and the Basic State Prosecutor's Office in Podgorica to immediately identify the person who threatened Đuranović's life, and to treat that act as a threat to security, and not as an incident of lower intensity that is resolved as a misdemeanor or allowed to expire.
