While there has been a great amount of international media coverage of the protests, the Belgrade media coverage has been small. The radio stations were jammed for several days and were finally shut down. The government retracted from B92's cancellation the next day. The two newspapers have been reporting widely on mass demon- strations in other towns of Yugoslavia as well as Belgrade. Activists Belgrade activists in local NGOs who Balkan Peace Team spoke with expect very little from Zajedno except for a change from the Milosevic regime.
Activists have a variety of assessments regarding the pro- tests.
Members from Women in Black clearly say that they are not supporting Zajedno, but they take part in the demonstra- tion each and every day, because they see them as a hopeful sign that people have lost their fright of speaking out, particularly after the large demonstrations in 1991 and 1992 which were crushed by government tanks and ended in violence and death. They hope for a change. The Women in Black are worried about a lack of concept and strategy in the Zajedno's handling of the demonstrations. WiB members have also offered their ideas to the striking students and Jelena Santic from Group 484 has been speaking at daily student forums. Feminist activists have added to the critique, pointing out how strong- ly the demonstrations are characterized by nationalist male chauvinists.
