TEDTalks: Sasa Vucinic (2005)
http://www.ted.com Sasa Vucinic, a former editor for Belgrade radio station B92, founded the Prague-based Media Development Loan Fund, which applies venture-capital principles to finance sustainable media companies in nations emerging from repressive regimes. In this quietly persuasive talk, Vucinic explores the power of a free press to reinvigorate struggling democracies, and proposes his vision - now realized - to sell "free press bonds," publicly traded securities that mobilize private investment to support independent media in emerging democracies.
