Do you believe the free flow of information must be protected? Sign the #RightToReport petition and demand that President Obama immediately:

1. Issue a presidential policy directive prohibiting the hacking and surveillance of journalists and media organizations.

2. Limit aggressive prosecutions that ensnare journalists and intimidate whistleblowers.

3. Prevent the harassment of journalists at the U.S. border.

Or click here to see the full petition, and join leading journalists like Christiane Amanpour, The Guardian’s Alan Rusbridger, Editor of the AP Kathleen Carroll, and Arianna Huffington in signing on.
