Means( Samo Smrt Spasava Serbe )

The point is that by omitting the basic facts from the story about the other two, we are led to believe that this is about a ‘Serb’.

It is generally standard journalistic practice to pad out the main story, here that the serb in question ran away, with further details of the actual event that lead to this serb running away. It adds balance to the story and places the main story in its full context.

Any one can take an isolated incident out of a story and the reader is left with a totally different view. One is properly represented, the other is not - whether by ommission, laziness or editorial ‘direction’.

Failing to mention the other suspects in the case only serves to reinforce pre-baked media bias who are only interested in seeing the story in one light, namely “Serbs=Evil”. It is a continued association and simplification.

We should expect as minimum a balanced and concise reporting. Considering the ‘ethnic’ sensitivities such a story has, I believe it was wrong to leave out information about the other two, regardless of their background. So, instead of a bunch of ex-Yugos kicking the sh*t out of the locals, we get the impression it was just a Serb who did it and ran away.

Anyone have a problem with that? No? Good, because every country would have reacted the same way.

And no, the US could not touch the vice consul, because he is protected by the Vienna convention (or whatever it is called). This protection sometimes seem unfair, but I think it is an unnecessary evil we have to live with if international diplomacy shall survive.

Now, to extradite or not…

First off, the US should get its ass in gear and start the necessary paperwork. Complaining to the press and in the media will do nothing.

Secondly, very few countries will blindly hand over their citizens to another country’s legal system just because the other country says “Please - he is evil”. In almost all cases the home country will want to examine the case, look at any evidence, read police reports etc. And sometime they will simply decide that “No, there is not enough evidence here”, “Sorry, but we don’t believe she will get a fair trial in your country”, or “Sorry, he might have done something that is illegal in your country, but it is not illegal here, so you can’t have him”.

It is all very common.

As for this case,I am an American, and should this situation apply to citizens of every country the US chooses to let in, SP? Kovacevic is not the first, nor will he probably be the last, accused criminal to escape to a foreign country. He understood the system and is trying to play it. Hell, no we shouldn’t “call it even”, but at the same time, this should not be used to try and convict Serbia in the press– especially when they haven’t even received an extradition request from the US!

This is more anti-Serb from the MSM. Kovacevic’s & his nationality has gotten more press than the fact that four of the FT. Dix Six were Kosovo Albanians! The press is just trying to cash in on another “Let’s hate the Serbs” story and I find it pretty disgusting!

how about appology????
