Milorad Vucelic is a journalist and former member of the Socialist Party of Serbia. From 1977 until 1985 he was the director of the Student Cultural Centre, during which time, according to his biography, he was noticed for developing alternative cultural projects. Even though he positioned himself as a leftist and a fan of Che Guevara, Vucelic was close to the Serbian nationalist leader Slobodan Milosevic during the 1990s. He was the director of RTS at a time when RTS was used as an instrument of propaganda by Milosevic’s regime. His relationship with the Socialists ended in 1995, but from 1997 to 1998 he re-joined the party. After the murder of democratic Prime Minister Zoran Djindjic in 2003, Vucelic was arrested in the police operation Sablja. Furthermore, an investigative television show and now web portal Insajder published a police report which stated that Vucelic was involved in cigarette smuggling during the 1990s, an allegation which he denied. Today, he is close to the ruling Serbian Progressive Party and serves as their defender in public. In October 2016 he was elected as president of the Partizan football club. Daily Vecernje Novosti appointed Vucelic as editor in chief in September 2017.
