Recommendation
Russia’s arrest of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich in March 2023 put a spotlight on the fact that hundreds of journalists worldwide are being jailed, injured, or killed just for doing their jobs. Threats to journalists remain unabated even given the good news that Gershkovich was freed in a major seven-nation prisoner exchange on August 1, 2024. Today’s murder rate for journalists is the highest in recorded history, and they are also dying in active war zones. In this edition of The First Person with Michael Judge podcast, the host talks with the director of the Committee to Protect Journalists, Gulnoza Said, about the danger journalists face and what can be done to help those in prison or in peril.
