On December 23, female journalists of N1 television received threats and sexist insults through comments posted on the outlet’s website. One such threat, directed at a female journalist, came from a user under the name “Vid,” who, while commenting on an article about a citizens’ protest in Bački Petrovac held in connection with the visit of the President of the Republic, wrote that he wished an N1 journalist would approach him and that he would “sweetly shove the microphone into her mouth so she wouldn’t know what hit her…”.
