All over the world, journalists are being silenced and opposed in their efforts to report the truth and hold those in power accountable for their actions. Their equipment is stolen and destroyed; they are attacked or prosecuted. Journalism is not a crime.
Especially in this time of crisis, where reliable information can save lives, journalists must be able to do their work free from violence. That’s why Free Press Unlimited states: Stop silencing journalists!
Solidarity with journalists under pressure
It’s time we showed our solidarity with journalists under pressure.
We have a right to reliable information, so we need media and journalists to investigate and report the truth.
We must stand up for Maria Ressa and every other journalist in the field who is being pressured or attacked.
Enough is enough! Let’s speak up together.
