This is not a story about Nadalina, nor is it about Vesko Ševaljević's famous hit, which puts the newly composed Montenegrins (born politically in 1997) on the tables and forces them to cut the veins through which hot Komite blood flows. This is the story of a state that, in the person of the responsible minister of culture and media, Aleksandar Bogdanović, woke up this morning and communicated to the nation a precise definition of its mental state: "Without ethical and professional responsibility, Pink and Happy TV in their recognizable formats in the most crude way, by choosing topics and the joint forces of the so-called journalists and guests, they insult the state, national, cultural and spiritual being of Montenegro"!
Here, Miško and Željko, tabloid Vijesti and our media mafia waited for the most invited to stand in their defense. That after 952 (in letters: nine hundred and fifty two) Pink TV reports against Professor Perović, the founder of PMF, the Lexicographical Institute, Matica, Monitor, Vijesti, the author of the most significant three-volume work on the history of mathematics in Southeastern Europe - that one of the officials stand up for his honor and reputation. Because this is how the state is defended - the minister is right.
I did not believe that Ž. Ivanović, the biggest publisher in the humble history of Montenegro, one of the most influential in the entire region, a promoter of freedom of speech and human rights for more than 30 years, I did not believe that he, as the head of the media mafia and rackets, would wait for the competent minister to come to his defense. Because as Bogdanović accurately concluded - the state is under attack. And only the Vijesti concern, which has been defending Montenegro for more than two decades from this propaganda and reality scourge born in the crimes of the nineties. What a satisfaction for our media, our editors and journalists, our families, who all these years and decades have been victims of the media that Bogdanović now brilliantly recognizes for "the brutality of the performances, disqualifications, hate speech and insults"!
When the minister mentions "recognizable formats" he probably alludes to the infamous "Minute-dva". And when he talks about the "so-called journalists and guests", treating them as a united group, he surely means Beba Popović, Srđan Kusovac, Ivana Šebek, Vesna Šofranac, Ranko Đonović, Danilo Burzan, Darko Šuković, Draško Đuranović, Milij Prelević, Boris Darmanović, Nenad Zečević, Šemsudin Radončić, the unsuspecting academician Popović, Ranko Vujović, Radojko R., lawyer Martinović, Aneta Spaić and the rest of the "so-called journalists and guests" who, for the past ten years, as the minister perfectly notes, "unprovoked, on a daily basis and indiscriminately" hit the foundations of a free and democratic Montenegro. Because freedom of speech, independent media, the right of the individual to be informed, these are the fundamental values of Europe, which our small and neglected country strives for.
I am sorry that the minister does not allude to the other "recognizable formats" of these channels in his public address. Because when he talks about the attack of imported televisions on the "sovereignty of Montenegro, age-old tradition, cultural and national being", Bogdanović should know that this scourge does not attack Montenegro only through "Minut, dva", but much more through Zadruga, Farmi, Zvezda Grand, Exclusive, Kursadžija and other Amidžićs who have been destroying the nation's mental health for a decade and a half. Cancer of society! Conceived and supported in every way by the state itself and its leaders. Looks like suicide. "No, Milo, get over yourself! Because the country is you"! I am saying this, not the minister, although it is obvious that he now sees the same thing.
However, Bogdanović tries to defend the Boss. And the described media crime against Montenegro. So he says: "For almost two decades, Montenegro has been harmonizing and implementing the standards of the European right to freedom of expression and independence of the media, and the vertical of such practice is the absence of state supervision over the work of the media"! If there was luck, it would be just like that, minister. What you write would be the truth and not cynicism. If there was responsibility for the future of the country and the well-being of the citizens, the highest state officials, through soldiers from various self-regulatory bodies and "so-called journalists and guests", would not have brutally and thoroughly polluted the Montenegrin media space, in an attempt to destroy what is most valuable and best. they shut up. Hindsight - the worst wit, Minister.
But better late than never. So, go ahead Bogdanović. Even though you went the wrong way. Via Džafić and Vujović. The main creators of the evil that made the citizens of Montenegro wise up and made the young generation look up to Ceca, Kija Kockar, Kristijan and the rest of the brothers, filming porn videos in school toilets and dreaming of performing in Pink or Grand stars. Minister, do you know that the north of Montenegro is slowly but surely changing to Ekavica, we have lost not only Čirgić's and Đaga's letters, but also the dialect that is the foundation of our identity. Not to mention our case again - what have those important regulators and their media policy done in terms of promoting freedom of speech and dialogue in society. For all that, in any European country, Džafić, Stojanović, Vujović, Vojvodićka and the company from AEM would be not only morally but also criminally sanctioned.
And you expect them, after this letter, to put back in the bottle the spirit of evil and hatred that they themselves let loose and carefully nurtured for a decade and a half. You, Minister, will have to fight with other, truly responsible and serious people for the "protection of the state, national, cultural and spiritual being of Montenegro". Otherwise, you wrote for nothing.
