Reality – ban on broadcasts until 11pm – REM Council – TV Pink

The Council of the Regular Electronic Media Organization (REM) has decided to start the drafting of a regulation, which will limit the transmission of reality shows from 11 pm to 6 am, confirmed Council member Slobodan Cvejić for Nova.rs. REM will also file a criminal complaint against Kristijan Golubović for the threats made on the reality show and will initiate proceedings against TV Pink, where the show was broadcast.

Cvejić explained that the REM Council, in today’s session, at the suggestion of him and of members Judita Popović and Višnja Arandjelović, began to draft a regulation on the dissemination of the reality of the “forced environment”.

“This regulation is binding and implies that reality shows are broadcast from 11 pm to 6 am. After that, the draft regulation goes to the Ministry for an opinion and then to a public debate. However, neither the opinion of the ministry nor the public debate are binding, so we believe the regulation will be adopted in the way it is drafted by REM, “said Cvejić.

REM will also bring criminal charges against Kristijan Golubović for the death threats made on the TV Pink reality show Zadruga on the night of September 16, as, as stated, REM has a legal obligation to contact the competent authorities when it proves that a crime has been committed in the program. job.

Also, due to this fact, REM, in accordance with the Electronic Media Act, is initiating a process against RTV Pink, where the disputed program was broadcast.

The law lists a reprimand, warning, ban on broadcasting a specific program, or revocation of a broadcasting license as a sanction that can be imposed on a broadcaster at the end of that procedure.

On Friday, a video appeared on social media and YouTube in which Kristijan Golubović, a participant in the reality show “Zadruga” and a convicted criminal, publicly threatened to kill Stanija Dobrojević “if he did not apologize for saying that about his children.” .

During the “Spectator Questions” program, Golubović first insulted Stanija Dobrojević and then stood up and made a direct death threat, Nova.rs reports.

The Council session was already scheduled with the agenda, which included a proposal to draft a Rulebook on the timing of broadcasting reality TV ‘in a forced environment’, and the incident itself was added as an agenda item.

In May, REM, by a narrow majority of five to four votes, refused to comment on a proposal that would limit the reality show.

At the time, Cvejić was one of four members of the REM Council who requested a request to be put on the agenda for reality shows to be broadcast exclusively on television from 11 a.m. to 6 a.m.
