TV maniac

Thanks also to God

You must have noticed them. There is no way you missed them, because all the televisions, including the SOS channel, competed in reporting on their concert. Now they will come to us at least once a month, alone or with partners, always at the "Sava" Center. For all fans of Croatian music, the magazine is a reliable sign that the dream will soon come true. The magazine is an opening act for Oliver, who, as we hear on the show Svet plus, is "so to the sea". Do you believe today that ten years ago the state radio lost its job because of Jure Stublić's song? It's easy to feel sorry for TV Košava, which would have declared Tonći and his team as honorary citizens of Vasionska Estradna Serbia. However, the reception committee was up to par. During the press conference, next to Tonći, who gave an inspired sermon worthy of Sai Baba, sat Ivana Bojić, fixing her hair. The Magazin singer got his hands on, and who else but Boško, who chose the local folk costume for the meeting, that is, a frilly tracksuit and fast sneakers. Love shone in his eyes. What do we care that Serbia has no sea when the team from Pink will soon go camping in Makarska with proper visas. The rest of us will wait a bit.

The past week contained several important dates. The eighth of March produced a dilemma - Magazin or Dragan Stojnić, according to age, and there is also the ninth of March, which Studio B considers its golden moment and zenith. However, we should not forget Kurban Bayram, whose central celebration was held in Sandzak. In other words, something for everyone.

Children's joy never ends. It turns out that educators go on strike under every government, so again there is no school. Only, this time the Government is addressing professors with a televised appeal. Since there is no money, reason, morality and patience are appealed to. For years, during the demonstrations, we have been waiting for the awakening of the famous Rakovica, which seems to have slept through the change of government. In her place, the most militant turned out to be educators who, with their strike, started something that will be our harsh reality in the coming period. The new faces that paraded on the TV screen are trade union leaders. From my childhood, I remember them for their plaid suits, pork halves and sacks of potatoes and apples. Their appearance hasn't changed much, but today they seem to be at war with each other over membership. There will be more strikes, I just don't know if a new TV jingle will be recorded every time, or if there will be a typical one. Fortunately, for the first time, the strike has nothing to do with politics, no matter how contentedly the former regime rubbed its hands, but with ordinary misery and the poor. This is precisely the significant difference that separates the strike from the self-proclaimed patriots from the moral shield in Dedinje. We saw them in the report of the YU info channel, crying desperately for the lost dose of RTS Benzedin, shaking due to the abstinence crisis. I believe that there are more of them, but locked in their apartments, with the blinds down, they get off the most dangerous ideological drug by themselves, watching the footage of the old RTS. Apparently, Palma doesn't do enough of them, so maybe they should think about the show "I remember the diary" where they would be methadone the unforgettable Milanović and Vučelić television shows.

Milojko won the flattering title of player of the week without competition during the delayed broadcast of the derby at the Maracana. Namely, he began the broadcast with the words: "Thank God and Zoran Đinđić, soccer is being played again in Belgrade today." It was not an ordinary commentator's blunder, or another one of the legendary pearls of RTS's sports newsroom. And now who can say that only Kostunica is getting involved.

Finally, one good news. In the PG Network show, I saw a report from the Second Belgrade High School in which the children had a written composition on the topic: "Being the same, being special, being free, just being yourself." The professor grew up with the Breakers, so today (regardless of the strike) she tries to work with children in an original way. That's how Cane finally got into reading. And it was time.

Overview of the week

Praise for neutrality

If we are neutral while students are being imprisoned, girls and boys are being beaten for God's justice, democracy is being suppressed, dissenters are being dehumanized, corruption is continuing that kills and many other evil things are being done - then nothing

Police torture: Why are the prosecutor's office and the MUP pretending to be crazy?

A policeman and a policewoman were filmed pulling a student's hair in an attempt to extort her. It is a classic example of torture, a gross violation of the law for which they would have to bear the consequences
