WOW: The fallout from Serbia’s stunning election upset just took another extraordinary turn.
After the student-led movement defeated Aleksandar Vučić’s ruling party, a Serbian public television broadcaster went ON AIR and APOLOGIZED to viewers for YEARS of biased reporting.
News anchor Goran Eror acknowledged that the network had remained silent, looked the other way, presented one-sided coverage, and failed to ask the tough questions.
The broadcaster had initially failed to show footage of massive celebrations following the election victory. Now, those very scenes opened its newscast.
The station’s acting editor-in-chief has since RESIGNED.
A similar reckoning unfolded in Hungary after Viktor Orbán’s election defeat.
Two countries where public broadcasters have acknowledged years of misleading coverage following major political defeats.
