Belgrade’s Deputy Mayor Goran Vesic on press conference accused N1 TV of being unprofessional, claiming that he had access to is part of customary communication between editors and reporters, to an internal e-mail which he claims includes instructions to reporters to wage a campaign against him. After Vesic left the news conference, his media advisor Masa Radulovic voiced insults against the N1 TV crew and said that N1 will no longer be able to cover the deputy mayor’s news conferences unless its reporters send her questions in advance, claiming that other reporters do the same.
