Summary/Abstract: The analysis of the content of the show People and Events, broadcast in 2024 on RTCG, indicates serious conceptual and editorial deficiencies in the selection, presentation and interpretation of information. Instead of fulfilling its scientific and educational function through accurate, scientifically based and unbiased content, the show is dominated by a pronounced political and ideological bias, with selective extraction of information that shapes the narrative in accordance with current political interests. The affirmation of revisionist interpretations of historical events, which are not aimed at education and encouragement of critical thinking, but reflect daily political and ideological agendas, has also been recorded. Of particular concern is the marginalization of Montenegrin cultural and historical identity, the relativization of the anti-fascist heritage and the distorted interpretation of events from the 1990s, which undermines the potential of the RTCG public service to objectively inform and educate the public.
