Contents Summary
The documentary explores how RTS (Serbian TV) reported on the fighting in Vukovar. Specific reports which had a strong impact on the Serbian public throughout the fighting are analysed. Several examples of misconduct and code violations among RTS journalists are shown. The documentary outlines how RTS became the a powerful propaganda machine and Milosevic's strongest weapon in keeping the Serbian people's enthusiasm for war. TVNS: White Eagle volunteer states he is a volunteer, but that his unit is under the Yugoslav army (JNA) command.
