[1][2] Born in Zagreb, PR Croatia, FPR Yugoslavia to ethnically mixed parents (Serbian father Marko Milić from Slano and Croatian mother Marija Smodlaka from Dubrovnik),[3] young Goran spent a couple of months in Prague at the age of six, joining his father who was part of the Yugoslav diplomatic staff in Czechoslovakia.
In 1954, his father got reassigned to an observer post in the Council of Europe so the family moved to Strasbourg where young Goran attended primary school, grades two through six.
Before graduating gymnasium, however, he was on the move again, this time to Montevideo, Uruguay as his father got named to the post of Yugoslavia's ambassador in the South American country.
[6] Milić also cites Momčilo Popović as an influence, specifically his style of summarizing news items in a catchy headline before expanding upon the topic.
No one in the US administration would admit it publicly, but it was clear Carter didn't want to be present and photographed at the same function with Soviet General Secretary Leonid Brezhnev in the middle of their frosty relations and disagreements over Afghanistan.
During his time in the United States, Milić became a member of National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, and was a part of the committee for News & Documentary Emmy Award for three years.
[5] Coming back home to Yugoslavia, simultaneously with work at RTB, he began teaching at the University of Belgrade's Department of Journalism as lecturer, a job he performed until 1988.
Right after returning from New York, Milić began hosting Saturday's Dnevnik 2, RTB's 7:30pm central daily newscast, which made him a well-known television personality all over SR Serbia and SFR Yugoslavia.
[9] At Dnevnik 2, in addition to delivering the news, his Saturday newscasts also bore somewhat of a personal imprint with several thematic segments including one where he got to interview general interest guests.
Throughout Milić's time anchoring RTB's Dnevnik 2, his popularity and prominence got him various one-off high profile side jobs in public relations.
In July 1990, Milić reportedly received a personal offer from Franjo Tuđman, the president of SR Croatia, to transfer to Croatian Radiotelevision (HRT).
[3] In October 1990, Milić became host and editor-in-chief of the newly established Yutel, Sarajevo-based daily newscast founded and financed by the Federal Executive Council (SIV) under the presidency of Ante Marković.
[6] Alongside Milić, other journalists producing the hour-long Yutel daily newscasts were Gordana Suša, Dževad Sabljaković, Velibor Čović, and Zekerijah Smajić.
In later interviews the journalist admitted to having an "anathema above my head in Croatia" and being blacklisted in the country's top outlets due to his prior association with Yutel and pro-Yugoslav political views.
[10] Milić was thus relegated to a series of lower profile jobs such as local TV productions in Umag as well as an 18-month columnist stint in Slovenian newsmagazine Mladina followed by writing for Marinko Božić's controversial right-wing weekly newspaper Slobodni tjednik.
In the letter Milić talked of his "illusions about the Belgrade democrats all of whom had the Greater Serbia idea in their heads" and dismissed the country's movement opposing Slobodan Milošević as "nothing but cackling and lighting candles".
The 8-part documentary features Milić exploring the life of European capitals after social and economical changes, such as Brexit, COVID-19 pandemic, and migrant crisis.
The yacht was docked in Bol on the island of Brač and Herold-Mijatović had reportedly been invited on board due to her husband Vlado Mijatović being friends with Ecclestone's then-wife Slavica Radić.
In 1980 when Milić became RTB's foreign correspondent from New York, the couple, along with Olivera's son Igor from her previous marriage, moved to the United States.
