US Ambassador Extremely Disappointed at Status of Media

Belgrade, June 5, 2003 In an interview to Belgrade’s NIN weekly magazine, US ambassador to Belgrade William Montgomery said: “We have made considerable efforts here in the past decade to help develop a truly independent, accountable journalism. I am extremely disappointed not only because this did not happen at a pace which I expected, but also because of the fact that there are some people in the government itself who still perceive the media as something that could be manipulated, or something the government may use as a weapon.”
