  "account": "Manja Grcic has resigned as head of Serbian state broadcaster RTS, three days after the parliamentary election. She said she had stayed on to ensure a smooth transition, but acknowledged that some saw her remaining as an obstacle to change. The opposition student movement won the election, ending the 14-year rule of Aleksandar Vucic, who had been accused of undermining democracy and restricting media freedom. Grcic was appointed head of RTS in February.",
  "summary": "RTS was considered a mouthpiece of the Vucic government, with hardly any critical voices being heard. Now the director is stepping down - is this step enough for a new beginning at the public broadcaster?",
