Serbia TV apology row
A roughly 30-second on-air apology by a presenter on Serbia’s RTV sparked controversy after the broadcaster admitted it had failed for years to provide professional, impartial coverage. The admission came after the ruling party lost an election to a student-backed list, ending its 14-year dominance. The apology followed criticism of the channel’s coverage of protests after a canopy collapsed at a station in Novi Sad, killing 16 people. The election was followed by editorial changes at the broadcaster. A media analyst cautioned that an apology does not guarantee press independence, given continued political influence and reliance on state funding. An editor at the channel said that restoring public trust would require ongoing changes to its day-to-day practices.
