From an unsigned and untitled email sent by Radoica Radomirović to the KoSSev newsroom – following a series of messages he had previously addressed to KoSSev’s editor-in-chief Tatjana Lazarević, including an announcement of a forthcoming rebuttal – the portal received the following message:
“Regarding the unprofessional and malicious reporting of the KoSSev portal and the selective publishing of parts of private correspondence with their editor, Tatjana Lazarević, I consider it my duty to address the public and present the facts, in order to deny the allegations of the mentioned portal.
After the interview with Miloš Parandilović was completed, I asked the journalist why she manipulates information concerning the engagement of Mr. Nenad Radosavljević and the municipality of Leposavic. I emphasize that on that occasion I in no way obstructed the work of the journalist, nor prevented her from performing her professional duties.
Several hours later, I received an SMS message from a number unknown to me until then, which introduced itself as Tatjana Lazarević (the message is attached). I replied to that message the next day through a social application, also in written form (also attached).
The KoSSev portal then tendentiously published a text in which only one part of our correspondence was taken out of context, which is serious manipulation that misleads readers. For the purpose of objective and complete information of the public, I invite the editorial board of the KoSSev portal to publish in full my side of the communication, as well as my comment on the whole situation.
If the portal believes it has the right to publish private correspondence, then it also has the obligation to do so in full, and not selectively, for the purpose of creating a false image of the interlocutor.
With respect,” the message concludes.
The second email, also unsigned and untitled, contained screenshots of the correspondence between Radomirović and Lazarević, which we publish here as they were sent to us and as requested.
