U poređenju sa prethodnim mesecima tekuće godine, novembar je mesec sa najvećim brojem napada na medijske radnike. Do napada je najčešće dolazilo tokom protesta, demonstracija i drugih javnih okupljanja. Iako je policija bila pristutna, nije reagovala. Medijski radnici tretirani su kao politički protivnici. Bili su ometani u radu i izloženi fizičkim napadima i povređivanjima. Neki politički predstavnici i odbornici vladajuće stranke našli su se i u ulozi napadača. U Monitoringu je bilo reči o slučajevima napada na: novinarku Televizije N1 Žaklinu Tatalović i snimatelja Nikolu Popovića; snimatelja Euronews-a Mirka Todorovića; ekipu medija Radio 021; snimatelja i novinara agencije Fonet Marka Dragoslavića; novinara portala Kovinskeinfo.rs Miloša Ljiljanića; novinarku Bečejskog mozaika Kristinu Demeter FIlipčev; Anu Marković, novinarku portala Nova.rs; novinarku TV N1 Jelenu Mirković i snimatelja Aleksandra Cvrkotića; novinara dnevnog lista Danas Vojina Radovanovića; novinarku Medija centra Čaglavica i članicu uprave UNS-a Katarinu Marinković;
Vlasnika i izdavača portala Kosovo onlajn Dušana Milanovića. Tokom novembra nastavilo se sa pretnjama Ani Lalić Hegediš, Dinku Gruhonjiću, Nenadu Kulačinu i TV N1.
U novembru je doneta prvostepena osuđujuća presuda u ponovljenom postupku vođenom zbog ugrožavanja bezbednosti Vladimira Mitrića, novinara Večernjih novosti. Presuda zbog pretnji Matiji Gačiću, fotografu Južnih vesti, postala je pravnosnažna. Doneta je prvostepena oslobađajuća presuda za Dejana Petra Zlatanovića, urednika portala Srbin info.
Vrhovni sud potvrdio je da je od Vrhovnog javnog tužilaštva primio Zahtev za zaštitu zakonitosti u slučaju presude Apelacionog suda u slučaju ubistva Slavka Ćuruvije.
U novembru se navršilo 24 godine od ubistva novinara lista Bota sot Mustafe Džemailja.
Obeležen je Međunarodni dan borbe protiv nekažnjivosti zločina protiv novinara i novinarki. Nakon posete Beogradu, Međunarodna organizacija Reporteri bez granica pozvala je Vladu Republike Srbije na borbu za slobodu medija, a protiv propagande.
Čitaoci se u Monitoringu mogu obavestiti o predlozima za izmene Krivičnog zakonika. Predloge su zajednički uputili predstavnici novinarskih udruženja i asocijacija medija u Stalnoj radnoj grupi za bezbednost novinara, s ciljem da se bezbednost medijskih radnika unaredi. Kada je reč o implementaciji postojećih propisa, bilo je reči o detaljima krivične prijave koju su, protiv Predsednice parlamentarnog odbora za kulturu i informisanje Nevene Đurić, početkom novembra podneli Slavko Ćuruvija fondacija, Nezavisno udruženje novinara Srbije (NUNS), Nezavisno društvo novinara Vojvodine (NDNV) i Crta podneli. Na sednici Vlade Republike Srbije održanoj 7. novembra, o čemu se takođe u Monitoringu govorilo, usvojen je Predlog zakona o budžetu Republike Srbije za 2025. godinu. Predlogom su sredstva opredeljena za Ministarstvo informisanja i telekomunikacija uvećana za 405.072.000,00 dinara (16,53%) u odnosu budžet za 2024. godinu.

SERBIA'S MEDIA SCENE IN NOVEMBER 2024
Compared to the previous months of the current year, November is the month with the highest number of attacks on media workers. Attacks most often occurred during protests, demonstrations and other public gatherings. Although the police were present, they did not react. Media workers were treated as political opponents. They were hindered in their work and exposed to physical attacks and injuries. Some political representatives and councilors of the ruling party also found themselves in the role of attackers. Monitoring discussed the cases of attacks on: Television N1 journalist Žaklina Tatalović and camerman Nikola Popović; Euronews cameraman Mirko Todorović; the Radio 021 media team; cameraman and journalist of FoNet agency Marko Dragoslavić; journalist of the Kovinskeinfo.rs portal Miloš Ljiljanić; Bečejski Mozaik journalist Kristina Demeter Filipčev; Ana Marković, journalist of the Nova.rs portal; TV N1 journalist Jelena Mirković and cameraman Aleksandar Cvrkotić; journalist of the daily newspaper Danas, Vojin Radovanović; Katarina Marinković, a journalist from the Čaglavica Media Center and a member of the UNS administration; owner and publisher of the Kosovo online portal, Dušan Milanović. During November, threats to Ana Lalić Hegediš, Dinko Gruhonjić, Nenad Kulačin and TV N1 continued.
In November, a first-instance conviction was handed down in the repeated proceedings for endangering the safety of Vladimir Mitrić, a journalist for Večernje Novosti. The judgment regarding the threats against Matija Gačić, the photographer of Južne vesti, has become final. A first-instance acquittal was handed down for Dejan Petar Zlatanović, editor of the Srbin info portal.
The Supreme Court confirmed that it had received from the Supreme Public Prosecutor's Office a request for the protection of legality in the case of the judgment of the Court of Appeal in the case of the murder of Slavko Ćuruvija.
November marked the 24th anniversary of the murder of Mustafa Xhemail, a journalist from the Bota sot newspaper.
The International Day of Combating Impunity for Crimes against Journalists was marked. After the visit to Belgrade, the international organization Reporters Without Borders called on the Government of the Republic of Serbia to fight for media freedom and against propaganda.
Readers of the Monitoring can be informed about proposals for changes to the Criminal Code. The proposals were submitted jointly by representatives of journalist associations and media associations in the Permanent Working Group for the Safety of Journalists, with the aim of improving the safety of media workers. When it comes to the implementation of existing regulations, there was talk of the details of the criminal complaint filed against the President of the Parliamentary Committee for Culture and Information Nevena Đurić at the beginning of November by the Slavko Ćuruvija Foundation, the Independent Association of Journalists of Serbia (NUNS), the Independent Association of Journalists of Vojvodina (NDNV) and the organization Crta. At the session of the Government of the Republic of Serbia held on November 7, which was also discussed in Monitoring, the Draft Law on the Budget of the Republic of Serbia for 2025 was adopted. With the proposal, the funds allocated to the Ministry of Information and Telecommunications were increased by 405,072,000.00 dinars (16.53%) compared to the budget for 2024.
In connection with the allocation of budget money, the monitoring refers to the BIRN report "Transparency under the microscope: Public procurement for media services" and the NUNS report on the co-financing of projects in the field of public information at the level of the City of Belgrade.
