After Emir Zulejhić, who works for the Raskrinkavanje.ba website (owned by the Association of Citizens "Zašto ne"), published that I had called their association and threatened, I am obliged to address the public.
So, today we received a notification again on the Facebook page "Dnevni avaz" that our page published content that "confuses readers". This is certainly the 10th or 11th time in the last six months that the page of "Dnevni avaz" is under the scrutiny of "Raskrinkavanje" and their journalists who analyze texts published on portals in B&H.
Since I read the analysis in detail to determine why the text we published on our page is incomplete and which was originally published on the portal "Nezavisne novine", and the same text was also published on many other portals in B&H and the region, including N1, Buka, Index.hr, Raport, B92 ... I noticed that the analysis did not include individual portals that also published identical piece of news.
Then I called the phone number which I found on "Raskrinkavanje" page and asked for a journalist who was doing this particular analysis. When the person on the other side told me that she could not give the journalist's contact phone number and that I should contact her by e-mail, and that she was in charge of finances, I asked "who is financing you?".
Then I asked if I should come to them to talk in person with their journalist who published a lump sum analysis that is, who did not include other media in the analysis that published the same piece of news. After that, I exchanged a few messages on Facebook with the journalist who wrote the analysis and who gave me her e-mail address. I duly sent an inquiry and indicated that I needed her answer because I was doing an analysis of their analysis. By the time this text was published, I had not received a response.
This was perceived as a threat. I categorically reject the false accusations of "Raskrinkavanje" that I threatened one of their journalists.
I will always react vigorously to lump sum and unfounded ratings especially when it comes to the media house I work for. Furthermore, I urge all fellow journalists to go public and say how much "Raskrinkavanje" objectively analyzes and how "motivating" it is for people who do their job honestly and fairly to be notified two or three times a month that they have sinned because they did not check the statement. , for example, of Milorad Dodik.
- You were obliged to check whether what Dodik said was true - Darko Brkan, a man who heads the Association of Citizens "Zašto ne" and who hangs out with the notorious Avdo Avdić, editor of the obscure paraintelligence portal, a media outlet that "Raskrinkavanje" does not touch and protects it from their "analyzing".
The extent to which "Raskrinkavanje" is objective is shown by the numerous objections to their "analyzing" that other colleagues working for portals in Bosnia and Herzegovina have, such as "Hayat", "Raporta", "Bljesak", "Nezavisne novine", "Patrija", "Face TV", "Radio Sarajevo" ... to whom the "analyzing" of "Raskrinkavanje" is inflicting enormous financial damage, and who are already considering a joint response to the attacks of Darko Brkan and his team.
To summarize, I did not threaten, I did speak perhaps loude, I did not mention any "scattering" nor did it ever occur to me.
I advise my colleagues from "Raskrinkavanje" to pay more attention to objective analyzing in their work, and less to personal sympathies and selective protection of portals and editors close to them.
