This paper describes an inexpensive network for news exchange between TV stations, as well as a system for news production and distribution in a highly restrictive environment developed by the authors, among others. The system was initially designed in response to the news restrictions established in Yugoslavia by Slobodan Milosevic. During this time, independent media were periodically disrupted or banning. All communication channels in Yugoslavia were controlled under the dictatorship and so were subject to being censored or even turned off. For this reason, the network had to provide high system redundancy. Following the democratic changes in Serbia, the project's mission evolved into a suitable solution for the network of branch offices. The network involves broadcasters and correspondents from the five successor countries of the former Yugoslavia. In addition, correspondents from other networks are now able to send their news packages and other information.

A conceptual modeling of the teleprompting business process in the television news production as well as one practical realization of the teleprompting software are presented in this paper. The model and the software presented in this paper can be used in the different situations where a person reading a text should look as if he or she memorized the text "by heart".
