The News application is used by 100 thousand users every month, who exceeded one billion open pages this year.

Research also shows that the daily newspaper Vijesti is at the top when it comes to citizens' trust.

"Journalists and editors of Vijesti will continue to do their best to maintain that trust with their dedicated and professional work, so that the newspaper and the Vijesti portal remain a key place for dialogue, investigative journalism and control of the powerful in society," said the editor-in-chief of ND Vijesti , Mihailo Jovovic.

Television Vijesti is the most watched television in 2023 as well, which means that this TV company is entering its sixth year of absolute dominance. According to the only official data on viewership in the country and research conducted by IPSOS and Telekom Crne Gore, the TV Vijesti daily had a "share" of over 40 percent, which is almost twice as much as the next daily daily in terms of viewership.

On the top list of the 20 most watched TV shows in the country that are broadcast regularly - more than half were broadcast on TV Vijesti. When it comes to talk shows - by far the most watched is the original show by Petar Komnenić - Načisto, which is broadcast every Thursday at 20 p.m. The original shows Reflektor and Direktno, as well as the morning program "Boje jutra" and the important segment of the program are the sports shows that air twice a day and Meteo and Meteo put, through which you can get the most reliable weather forecast for our country and favorite destinations in the region.

Also, during events important to the public - our television is the most watched, so the election night of June 11, when the results of parliamentary elections arrived - was the worst in Montenegro.

But also when it comes to serial programming - the Turkish series, which is broadcast every weekday from 19.10, is the most watched in the serial program category. Currently, in this term, the series Jedina ljubav is being shown, which is particularly interesting to the audience due to the theme of the conflict between tradition and modernity.

"Vijesti TV is followed by the highest viewership and the highest trust because our viewers perceive us as a true public service that they can always turn to in search of answers to questions that the institutions of the system have not responded to with adequate information. Our journalists relentlessly search for the truth, which is the job of every professional in this business. What our citizens find in our shows are the answers and information they need, and not what the powerful in society want to spread, for the sake of their better rating in the public. We are not the megaphone of the powerful, but the voice of a man who wants the truth - and that is why we are the most watched television, and our portal is the most read", said the director of Daily Press and TV Vijesti, Marijana Kadić Bojanić.

She called on the authorities to end the agony in the media market by finally bringing to an end the drafting of media legislation, which is not easy due to the influx of various interests.

"Those who are in power should look for their achievements in concrete results in the field of EU integration, economy and the like and not in the number of 'subdued' media. The media must be a mirror of reality and not a toy in the hands of political rivals. And in New 2024, we will try to be the best for you who follow us every day, to nurture the 'old school' of quality journalism, but also to offer you new content and new digital projects", concluded Kadić Bojanić.

The editor-in-chief of TV Vijesti Radomir Kračković said that thanks to the dedicated work of the entire team, Television Vijesti has maintained its primacy and will do its best to keep it that way.

"We will continue to search for all important information and we will try to continue to be current and objective in order to be a reliable support for our viewers and help them make the right decisions," Kračković concluded.
