Preferred term

violence against journalists  

Definition

  • Investigating stories, let alone actually reporting them, can be a very dangerous profession. Indeed, each year several dozen reporters are killed (or otherwise threatened) for doing their jobs, most of them in developing nations or countries with repressive political regimes.
