Violence Against Journalists Hits Unprecedented Levels

Description

According to Reuters, Reporters Without Borders on Tuesday said that the murder of Saudi columnist Jamal Khashoggi in a year when more than half of all journalists killed were targeted deliberately reflects a hatred of the media in many areas of society. RSF said that at least 63 professional journalists around the world were killed doing their jobs in 2018. RSF said that is a 15 percent increase from last year, with the number of fatalities rising to 80 when including all media workers and citizen journalists.
