Hi there,

It is the job of the press to cover power, not cover for power—to hold those in power accountable by documenting what's happening on the ground and amplifying voices at the grassroots. In this critical moment, as attacks on the media escalate, we must continue to cover crackdowns on dissent, immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community, public health and academic freedom. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Yugoslavia–Live Report From Belgrade–Elections and U.S. Money

We go to Belgrade now where Yugoslavian Federal Election Commission has still not released the official results of Sunday’s presidential election. Both the ruling coalition and the opposition continue to claim victory in the election. The lack of results heightens fears that incumbent President Slobodan Milosovic is trying to overturn what appears to be an overwhelming opposition victory.

Guests:

  • Jeremy Scahill, Democracy Now! correspondent.
  • Novak Gaijic, an anti-government activist and a political scientist in Yugoslavia.
