State run Serbian news releases were the ONLY semi-reliable reports during the bombing campaign. I'm sure state-run Serbian news was just as reliable as other state-run news organizations in totalitarian states, such as the USSR, China, Iraq, Burma, etc.
I used to listen to Radio Moscow on shortwave in the mid-80s, and it's hilarious how much it is really self-serving propaganda with almost no truth content.

The American press was thoroughly state-run during the bombing, too, don't doubt that for a moment.
