Syndicate: FreeB92 Web site established


[from http://www.freeB92.net]

Free B92 is a website established by the Help B92 coalition. The site
is edited and published by the B92 team of journalists and associates,
working from various parts of the world. Free B92 will focus on
providing the international public with information on the status of
independent media in Yugoslavia.

Free B92 will also work on projects to support journalists and media
in various kinds of jeopardy. The first of these projects has been
launched by AMARC, the World Association of Community Radio
Broadcasters, on May 3, World Press Freedom Day. Similar projects will
be launched by various divisions of the former Radio B92. The B92
Publishing Division will prepare a presentation for the Frankfurt Book
Fair. ProFemina and Rec magazines will publish in electronic format
and lead discussions on the status of artistic work. The Cinema Rex
team will prepare projects presenting alternative art events by
Yugoslav artists who happened to be outside the country when war broke
out. These projects will also assist in promoting the work of artists
still in Yugoslavia.

Information and contributions from a number of associates will also be
published on the Free B92 site. These will throw more light on the
bombing of Yugoslavia and the consequences of this.

The common aim of these projects is to preserve the spirit of
professionalism which has been stripped from everyday communication in
Yugoslavia through the Belgrade regime's banning and takeover of
Radio B92.
