COMMENT: Fairy tale about the RTCG Ombudsman

AUTHOR: ČASLAV VUJOTIC, JOURNALIST RTCG

The competition for RTCG ombudsman failed. Although many expected it to be Todor Brajković, a Dan journalist. Because he didn't meet the conditions. According to the submitted documentation. The council is known to choose such. And - the courts say.

Instead of finding incomplete documentation, they rejected the aforementioned, in violation of the rules, customs, order, maybe even the law, and allowed the incomplete to become complete later. Despite the express statement that such a person would not be accepted, they asked him to provide later what was missing. He probably hoped, everyone would attach extra evidence, struggle to listen to them, despite the gossip: if he had not been in any electronic media for 10 years, there is no trick, even if he had made a radio or TV report, he never did. Whatever he presented, whether it was true or not, he "worked for him", in the end he failed. Competition.

Those in the know assume that he was not elected because they were afraid of being called out for violating the procedure, but they "crossed their fingers" a bit, as the people of Podgorica would say. Because everyone was equal at the vote, legitimate, there is room for additional prosecutorial involvement. Mathematics says, according to the count, without the martyrs, Božović or Popović would have been the ombudsman.

How far will the competitions go now, will anyone ever be the Protector, when the people who have no specific flaw are not at the will of Drljević's group? Who should now apply for something that seems to be above, or to the side, of the understanding of journalism, knowledge of the media, reputation, experience? By secret ballot, they declared such qualities possibly undesirable. What exactly is the truncated Council looking for, what quality, ability, closeness, membership, faith? It will show future registrants. Maybe the criteria will be lowered. Even through the Government.

Was it supposed to be like this? Is there any responsibility because the previous ones, in Mangup terms, were "deceited". It was correct, even if it was a sport, to think "who will be the best among us?", not to be rejected by the whole team because they are mysteriously not at the mysterious level of the Holy Council. Why wasn't there a vote, or at least a short one? Among those of sufficient quality, there was no one good, so it was decided to choose someone purely for the boss. Because it can happen to them. The previous holder (worthy!) of that title was not good either. In the future (or forever?) we have no one to complain about them and their pullen. Another barrier to bragging less.
