CNN AND BBC ñ EXAMPLES OF ìFREEî MEDIA
This article is just starting point for some people still believing in ìINDEPENDENT and FREEî media.
Just a few years ago, people in Yugoslavia were watching CNN as the most
professional television in the world. It was before they experienced ìfilmed
truthî on their own back.
Just a few years ago, several radio and TV stations in Serbia looked up on
satellite TVs as an ìexemplarî of democracy.
But something went ìwrongî.
Those independent stations forgot to report about slaughtering over Serbs
>from Croatia. Over 600.000 Serbs were driven from Croatia in just 2 days.
Satellite TVs didnít ìworkî then. Colons of refugees were bombed on their
way to Serbia by Croatian air force. No ìmassacreî on TV.
At the same time, in Bosnia ragged civil war. But this time, TV took his
part. And ìOscarî goes to CNN for black comedy: Markale massacre. I was
impressed while cheery people, LIVE, put their ìdeadî store dummies into the
trucks. Oscar price was celebrated by bombing Bosnian Serbs.
In years of starving ëcause of sanctions, instead food and medicines ìfreeî
media organized humanitarian help for ìindependentî media in Serbia. They
send paper, press machines and studio equipment.
The latest episode of this tragic serial is ìrefugee crisesî on Kosovo. Dark
faces of western reporters supported story about thousands, who cares,
millions of poor, poor people running away from scary Serbs. But nobody
mentioned they started to flee on March 24. If they flood year ago, as
ìfreeî media claim, where they were till now? UNHCR reported 600.000
refugees from Kosovo, Albanian and Serbs, since NATO start bombing
Yugoslavia. Maybe it is not good enough for news!?
Letís have a look on actors in this drama. 50 to 100 same faces, every
night, from different parts of Kosovo, well dressed, women with full make
up. Show must go on! I was shocked watching Albanian refugees heading to
border through snow in ULCINJ!!! Lesson from geography. Ulcinj is in
Republic of Montenegro, on Adriatic coast with average temperature over 20
C. But everything is possible (even snow on 22 Celsius degree). One day
later, I read on CNN web site about NATO attack on NOVI SAD, second largest
city on Kosovo (southern Serbian province). Iím really sorry, but Novi Sad
is capital of northern Serbian province Vojvodina.
Maybe is coincidence that CNN reports from Kosovo matched with State
Department policy but recently married CNNís raising star Christiane
Amanpour and the State Department's James Rubin cover the same "breaking
news" story. At the same time, as BBC and CNN reporters from Aviano and NATO
headquarters reporting with smile about demolished ìmilitaryî targets
(civilian buildings, bridges, schools, hospitals...), worried Chistiane
Amanpour talking about ìrefugees catastropheî. She forgot to mention that
ìfree mediaî and NATO created it.
Tonight, more then 40.000 Albanian ìrefugeesî disappeared from camp near
border on Macedonian soil. What a mystery. Someone should call Molder and
Scully from X-files. Macedonian citizens unfortunately solved case. 40.000
Albanian refugees were actors from Macedonia itself (1/3 of population in
Macedonia is Albanians). After Yugoslav authorities called cease-fire,
ìactorsî simply went home.
So, people, wake up. Iím not talented for film but I would direct so-called
drama better then CNN.
Iíll give you one more story to think about (you will not found that on CNN
or BBC).
CNN DID NOT PERMIT THIS SHOCKING STORY TO REACH AMERICANS. REPORTER BRYAN SADLER WAS INTERRUPTED IN THE MIDDLE OF HIS LIVE REPORT FROM THE SCENE, AS SOON AS HE MENTIONED THAT THERE WERE MANY CIVILIAN VICTIMS IN THE NATO
STRIKE ON ALEKSINAC. MOTHER OF TWO CHILDREN TRAPPED IN CELLAR, DIGS WAY OUT ALEKSINAC - A mother and her two children lie in hospital, after she dug a way out of the cellar over which her house collapsed, when it was hit by US guided missiles. Vukica Miladinovic and her family rushed down to the cellar, in the nick of time. It was a direct hit. When she came to after the strike, Vukica realised they were all buried under the ruins of the house, she told camera reporters. Though seriously injured herself, her immediate thought was the children. In the meantime, the boiler exploded and they began to suffocate. The bewildered mother began to struggle out from underneath the debris, to escape what had become a tomb. Hands bloody, she clawed a hole to pull out her daughter and son. The fate of her other three family members is still unknown.
