Honestly, I never dreamed that such a stupid and dirty decision could be made! My impression until yesterday was that this Council for Electronic Media (VEM) is the most competent so far and that in its mandate it will not allow itself any scandalous, biased, or dubious decisions as it happened in all mandates of previous convocations of this regulator. I think that I know very well the work of all the Councils, to such an extent that I could easily write a thicker book about their work, from 1995 until today. Yesterday, however, unprecedented media genocide took place! Six members of the VEM decided to once again shoot at the common sense of all media professionals who have been paving the way for media freedoms, professional standards, market competition, and fair and legal work since 1995. All this was once again thrown in the dump! Today, we can comfortably attend the funeral of such a VEM. After all, who needs the Electronic Media Council more at all?
