Johnstone is a longtime friend of a group of officials in Milosevic's
wife's political party--stays with them when she's in Yugoslavia, depends
on them (often exclusively) as sources for her articles, etc.
And how is that different from the standard practices of, say, New York
Times, Washington Post and other mainstream media that merely transmitt
press released handed down to them by government or corporate propaganda
offices?
