Uloga medija u satanizaciji srpskog naroda tokom građanskog rata u Bosni i Hercegovini
Role of the Media in the Satanisation of the Serbian People in the Civil War in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Summary/Abstract: Politics and the media will never have a relationship which would be equally suited to both. The phenomena of negative symbiosis, which have occurred quite often in recent years, encourage the dysfunction of the political and media systems. Massive abuse of the media by political powers is present by means of blurring, hindering and even blocking of the processes of objective reporting and qualified decision-making about events. During the civil war in BH, media reports were limited; information and facts were censored; the truth of events was produced, blurred or hidden through manipulation and disinformation; which prevented and/or completely limited the freedom of information and expression of truthful information. Powerful circles blocked the channels for the flow of information which came from the Serbian side, while many journalists employed by the western agencies were acting contrary to the journalistic code of practice, partially reporting on events and thus choosing a side in the BH conflict, while the Serbian side was slurred and constantly and uniformly satanised in the international public.
