Yugoslav Jugoslav Cosic


Needs to handled in utmost care. The dude of interest is Alexander
Renton, a Brit. Did a lot of time in the the conflict zone in Belgrade,
working for the UK Daily Standard. Reportedly, he writes for the Scotish
Independent now and may have some affiliation w/OXFAM. Smells MI6 to me.
Be careful. You may fall off a rooftop.

You mean ask questions about him? Sure, that wouldn't be a problem.

Interesting...

Do you have any sources in country who could discreetly trace a British
journalist in a non-alerting manner?

Hey Fred,

He is still a journalist, he leads the most popular TV show on B92 which
is called "Polygraph". B92 is the best private media network in Serbia, it
is actually one of our "partners" in this new effort to get local/regional
networks to feed us info.

He was in Australia from 91 to 98, so the worst Slobo years in Serbia he
spent abroad. He worked for a Sydney radio station (MCRA, Multi Cultural
Radio Association) while there, maybe Colin knows him as well.

He worked for Radio Free Europe from 1999 until 2001. This is key because
RFE was one of the last independent media stations during the NATO
bombing.

If he is a spook, he is most definitely OUR spook. Both B92 and RFE were at one point or another heavily funded by various pro-democracy U.S. funds, including Soros. So the "spook" theories may be Belgrade gossip which usually paints anyone who has links with West or Russia as a
"spook". Which is not necessarily true, but also not false of course.

By the way, he is also still a member of B92. If you need his contact or a
meeting with him, I can arrange that easily.

Cheers,

Marko
