Croatian state television (HRT) has banned use of Facebook and Twitter by their employees. Many speculate that the decision was caused by state television employees' sympathies expressed towards Facebook-organised protest movement. It was condemned by Croatian Journalist Society and caused some many to ponder whether Croatian government tries to suppress the protest movement by using Lybian-style methods.
Ilija Jandrić, HRT journalist and editor, reacted by open letter to Josip Popovac, HRT interim director, claiming that he and his colleagues can't do their proper jobs without Facebook and Twitter access.
