World Press Freedom Day


Despite the existence of rights enshrined by national and international conventions, journalists continue to find themselves in frequent peril for simply doing their job, as they strive to report the truth in the passionate belief that reporting what they see is the foundation of a healthy democracy. 

The
World Association of Newspapers and News Publishers WAN-IFRA is dedicating its 2010 World Press Freedom Day campaign to Journalists in Exile.
