YUTEL

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

YUTEL was a Yugoslav television program.

YUTEL was founded by the then Yugoslav federal government under Prime Minister Ante Marković and began broadcasting on October 23, 1990. The program consisted of an hour-long news program, which was intended to counterbalance the nationalist-tinged news of the stations controlled by the Yugoslav republics. It was broadcast regularly as a program window on the channels of TV Sarajevo (which had freed itself from the control of the Bosnian government) and TV Skopje, and at times also on other channels of the TV channels of the republics.

The seat of the program was Sarajevo . YUTEL's director was Bato Tomašević (1929–2017), the editor-in-chief was Goran Milić (* 1946).

After the start of the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina on May 1, 1992, the transmission mast in Vlasić came under the control of troops of the Bosnian Serbs, YUTEL could only be received in the city of Sarajevo . On May 11, 1992 broadcasting was stopped.
