The threats were previously condemned by NIN’s Deputy Editors-in-Chief, the Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS) and the Independent Association of Journalists of Serbia (NUNS).
Tonight, the Association of Journalists of Serbia (UNS) condemned the threats of the deputy editor-in-chief of the weekly NIN, Vesna Mališić, through the social network Twitter.
In a statement, the UNS expressed its solidarity with the NIN school and called on journalists to condemn all forms of violence against colleagues and to refrain from using violent rhetoric in their private accounts.
“Through threatening and inappropriate messages, journalists and public figures encourage verbal violence in the comments of their followers, thus further endangering the safety of their colleagues and worsening the conditions for professional media work,” the association said. .
They assessed that refraining from violence and sentencing are threats to all journalists “preconditions for free and independent journalism and for reducing the number of attacks on journalists.”
