63 journalists — a record high — were imprisoned last year. 40 were killed, per @pressfreedom.

7 have been killed so far this year, per @RSF_inter.

Israeli forces killed Al Jazeera’s Shireen Abu Akleh last year. She was wearing a clearly marked press vest. #WorldPressFreedomDay

RT @swissinfo_en: Today is #WorldPressFreedomDay and we talk to a exiled #Turkish #journalist, Can Dündar. He explains how important it is…

The day after #WorldPressFreedomDay, as #HongKong's #PressFreedom is dismantled & as we call on UK to speak out for #JimmyLai, & as #HK removes elected district council seats, this interview is unfortunate, concerning and badly timed. https://sc.mp/i7hp?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=share_widget&utm_campaign=3219296 via @scmpnews https://nitter.hongkongers.net/benedictrogers/status/1654021543481991169#m

@Megan_Khoo RT by @benedictrogers: Great article @benedictrogers 👏 @RishiSunak, @JamesCleverly, @annietrev, anyone from >@FCDOGovUK who monitors these accounts, will the Prime Minister publicly raise British citizen #JimmyLai's case and agree to meet with #JimmyLai's son on this #WorldPressFreedomDay? https://nitter.hongkongers.net/Megan_Khoo/status/1653780472588107777#m

One of the things I learned as a journalist/editor is that life is never as simple as you want it to be.

There will be complications to your day, your life, and your worldview, and you need to reexamine those priorities and thoughts you have in light of new information.

Journalism has also given me new ways of seeing the world, of opening up to thoughts I would have dismissed before working for Rappler.

We need good, honest journalism.

“Happy” #WorldPressFreedomDay that almost no state or corporation deserves to “celebrate” for punishing dissident journalists helping liberate us from greedy tyranny by showing the truth like Julian Assange and Shireen Abu Akleh #FreeAssangeNOW #JournalismIsNotACrime #FreeThemAll

On #WorldPressFreedomDay, I wrote a newsletter for @thexylom on the burden our local nonprofit newsrooms shoulder when legacy media outlets keep retreating.

Today’s discussion on Straight Talk Africa focused on the state of press freedom across Africa and around the world.

We also raised challenges such as the use of AI-generated synthetic media to spread disinformation. #WorldPressFreedomDay

The video content that China doesn't want you to see. @ActonInstitute's tiktok account was suspended today. They have been posting about Jimmy Lai and the documentary about him. #FreeJimmyLai #WorldPressFreedomDay https://nitter.hongkongers.net/frances_hui/status/1653901939921264640#m

@freetibetorg RT by @badiucao: On this #WorldPressFreedomDay, it’s important to remember that not only is Tibet tied with being the least free country in the world, it also has one of the least press freedoms. Journalists are not allowed to freely travel and talk with whomever. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1653807790496919571 https://nitter.hongkongers.net/freetibetorg/status/1653807790496919571#m

Wrote a little something for @guardian on #WorldPressFreedomDay. Been nice to do some writing again amid all this. More to come. https://www.theguardian.com/media/2023/may/03/blocked-censored-jailed-or-laid-off-why-its-never-been-harder-to-be-a-journalist

White House Press Secretary refuses to answer question about Julian Assange when asked about criticism of double standards in calling for the release of Evan Gershkovich, while pursuing prosecution of Assange #WorldPressFreedomDay #FreeAssangeNOW

We have a free press in Canada.

We don’t get to the tell them what to write. We don’t get to tell you what to read.
