Ithink our response should be something along the lines of: “The JAVAarticle of October 21, 2004 concerning the disputes between K<strong>TV</strong> andR<strong>TV</strong>21 illustrate the enormous challenges that lie ahead to transformKosovo’s nascent print media into a modern and responsible source ofnews for the Kosovar public. The fabrications, speculation, and spinningwill no doubt be titillating to some and result in greater sales. It alsodemonstrates JAVA’s proclivity to be more sensationalist than right.When libelous fabrications can be passed off as truth, it is indeed a sadday for Kosovo.”I’m just venting, to be sure, but believe some response is in order.Thoughts?David LeongDeputy Mission DirectorUSAID/Kosovo21
