N1 Television Defends Journalist Amidst Family Background Reporting

N1 Television stands firm in its defense of journalist Žaklina Tatalović against what it deems an unwarranted and intrusive media campaign targeting her family background. The recent reporting, which fixates on her origins rather than her professional output, is not only irrelevant but also a distraction from her important work.

“

We consider such reporting to be neither proportionate nor relevant to her professional work.

We have provided clear documentation confirming Žaklina Tatalović's family roots in Vrbovsko, Gorski Kotar. The insinuation that her background is somehow disqualifying or noteworthy in relation to her journalism is baseless. While N1 strives for consistency, an earlier instance of reporting on this matter was not adequately managed, and we have taken steps to rectify that and apologize for the lapse.

“

The documentation provided by Žaklina Tatalović confirms her origin from the Hajdin family, Vrbovsko, Gorski Kotar.

Furthermore, N1 wishes to clarify its position regarding a private family correspondence that has surfaced in other media outlets. This communication was not published by N1, nor was such a request made to us. Its subsequent appearance elsewhere, over a year later, raises questions for those outlets.

“

N1 regrets this inconsistency and apologizes.

Crucially, the recent actions directed at Žaklina Tatalović extend beyond professional critique. N1 takes any threat to the safety and well-being of its journalists with the utmost seriousness. We remain committed to upholding our editorial standards, correcting our own mistakes, and ensuring a secure environment for our staff to perform their duties without fear of harassment or intimidation.

“

N1 takes seriously any behavior that threatens the safety or well-being of its journalists.
