How reputational attacks harm journalists, undermine press freedom – Report

More than 60 per cent of journalists surveyed as part of a new research project reported at least monthly attacks on their personal reputations.

The Global Reporting Centre and the Committee to Protect Journalists conducted the survey to investigate the effects of disinformation and harassment targeting journalists.

Initial details from the study were released to mark May 3, World Press Freedom Day, and full details of the report were made available this week.
