On June 26 the front page of the right-wing weekly 7Dnevno featured<br />
an arrest warrant of sorts with the photographs of five persons<br />
– journalists Viktor Ivančić, Boris Dežulović and Maja Sever,<br />
director general of Croatian Radio television Goran Radman<br />
and the president of the Croatian Journalists’ Association (HND)<br />
Saša Leković – with the title: “Radmano-vision and HND: the last<br />
fortress of ORJUNA 17 sympathisers and Kosovites.” 18 Journalist<br />
Joško Čelan wrote that HTV broadcasts hosted by Maja Sever are<br />
pervaded by an “icy wind of Yugo communism”, and added many<br />
other insults.<br />
Most disgraceful pieces of journalism appear every week in the<br />
Zadar-based Hrvatski tjednik with Ivica Marijačić as its editor.<br />
The weekly published on May 28 an article titled “Dearly paid<br />
Serbdom in Parliament – Pupovac is the product of Serb and<br />
foreign intelligence services.” The August 6 issue, published one<br />
day after the 20 th anniversary of Operation Storm, features a<br />
“Thank you for 20 years of freedom” letter on the front page with<br />
the accompanying text “Thank you dr. Tuđman and the veterans<br />
for having solved the ‘Serb issue’ in Croatia for good”. On the<br />
occasion marking the fall of Vukovar 19 , this weekly published<br />
on November 19 an interview with Robert Bosak, owner of the<br />
(private) Vinkovci Television which also broadcasts hate speech in<br />
its programme. “Serbs are again taking control of the city”, Bosak<br />
said for the weekly which advertises Ustasha books in every issue.<br />
