dbo:abstract
  • Vjesnik (deut. Kurier) war eine kroatischsprachige Tageszeitung aus Zagreb, die von 1940 bis 2012 erschien. Der Vjesnik wurde 1940 von der kommunistischen Bewegung gegründet. 1990 wechselte die Redaktionspolitik von rein kommunistisch und sozialistisch geprägter Betrachtungsweise auf mehr Liberalität und damit zu einem regierungsfreundlichen Kurs. Ausschlaggebend dafür war die Wahl von Franjo Tuđman zum ersten Präsident Kroatiens, der für freie Marktwirtschaft eintrat. Vjesnik war offizielles Regierungsblatt und galt als die einzige landesweit erscheinende Qualitätszeitung. Am 13. März 2012 wurde bekannt, dass die kroatische Regierung die Tageszeitung an die Oak Investment Management Group verkaufen möchte. Im April 2012 stellte die Zeitschrift ihr Erscheinen ein. In 72 Jahren erschienen über 30 Millionen Artikel. (de)
  • Vjesnik (lit. 'courier') was a Croatian state-owned daily newspaper published in Zagreb which ceased publication in April 2012. Originally established in 1940 as a wartime illegal publication of the Communist Party of Croatia, it later built and maintained a reputation as Croatia's newspaper of record during most of its post-war history. During World War II and the Nazi-allied Independent State of Croatia regime which controlled the country, the paper served as the primary media publication of the Yugoslav Partisans movement. The August 1941 edition of the paper featured the statement "Smrt fašizmu, sloboda narodu" (transl. "Death to fascism, freedom to the people") on the cover, which was afterwards accepted as the official slogan of the entire resistance movement and was often quoted in post-war Yugoslavia. Its heyday was between 1952 and 1977 when its Wednesday edition (Vjesnik u srijedu or VUS) regularly achieved circulations of 100,000 and was widely read across Yugoslavia. Following Croatia's independence and the breakup of Yugoslavia in the early 1990s its circulation steadily began to dwindle, as Vjesnik came under the control of the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ), at the time the ruling conservative party. Ever since the 1990s, Vjesnik was seen as always taking a pro-government editorial stance, and it even changed its name briefly in 1992 to Novi Vjesnik in an attempt to distance itself from its own communist history. The name, however, proved to be unpopular and was changed back that same year. A sharp drop in average daily circulation occurred from 1997 (21,348) to 2005 (9,660) down from over 100,000 in 1960. In early 2012 the paper ran into serious financial difficulties, and in April it ceased printing. By May 2012 Vjesnik operated only as a web portal. By 12 June 2012, the web portal was still accessible, but it was no longer updated, and in July 2012 the website was defunct. (en)
