We want to thank
all of you who responded to the challenge set out by our chairman,
If you are a
regular reader, you may have noticed a shift in CPJ's work over recent years.
As the media landscape has transformed, we increasingly take up cases involving
individuals working alone or with limited institutional support—freelancers, Internet
journalists, bloggers. Meanwhile, the mainstream media institutions that have
long supported our work are themselves facing a profound economic and even
existential crisis.
At this critical moment, we need individuals who care about free expression to step up to support journalists at risk around the world.
A glance through our Web site shows what's at stake. Twenty-six journalists are imprisoned in China; most of them were prosecuted for publishing news and opinion online. In Afghanistan, militants are increasingly targeting local journalists and foreign correspondents. The Russian government routinely turns a blind eye when journalists are murdered for reporting on crime or corruption.
Journalists from around the world depend on CPJ to speak out and deliver urgent assistance in crisis situations. Our advocacy literally saves lives.
Thanks again to
all of you who have contributed to the campaign. If you haven't already, please
consider making a donation
to CPJ. And help spread the word about why it's so important to support media
freedom now.
