The Independent Journalists' Association of Serbia (NUNS) and other civil society and media organizations submitted an initiative to the Regulatory Authority for Electronic Media (REM) to revoke Informer TV's broadcasting license.

Informer TV is known as the fiercest defender of the Vucic regime and its owner and editor Dragan J. Vucicevic and his staff have made offensive comments against Vucic opponents.
NUNS said the initiative was in response to what it described as years of systematic violations of the law and programming obligations that REM failed to sanction. It was submitted by civil society organizations, media associations and representatives of journalism departments at universities in Belgrade, Novi Sad and Nis.
The move comes a day after protesters broke into Informer's Belgrade studio and interrupted its broadcast, leading to a confrontation with police outside the building. The Student List said it did not support or call for incursions into media outlets or institutions, adding that it would fight for media freedom and professional journalism through parliament and institutional channels.
