Freedom index finds journalism blocked in 130+ countries Tue 20th April 2021 | 09:40 AM Paris, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 20th Apr, 2021 ) :The annual report by Reporters Without Borders (RSF) said Tuesday that journalism was at least partly blocked in nearly three-quarters of the 180 countries surveyed. Its World Press Freedom Index found 73 countries totally blocked or seriously impeded journalism, while it was constrained in 59 others, adding that many governments had used the pandemic to worsen repression. Journalism is the best vaccine against disinformation, RSF secretary-general Christophe Deloire said in a statement. Unfortunately, its production and distribution are too often blocked by political, economic, technological and, sometimes, even cultural factors. Eritrea, North Korea, Turkmenistan, China and Djibouti fared worst overall in this year s RSF ranking.
