MP Debate Highlights Concerns For News Publishers
In a Westminster Hall debate on World Press Freedom Day last week, MPs raised concerns over journalist safety, commercial pressures on news publishers and SLAPPs.
MPs highlighted the increasing dangers facing journalists from international figures and countries. As reported by Reporters without Borders, John Nicholson MP said 50 journalists were killed globally in 2020, with 387 currently detained. The RSF survey also showed more journalists being killed in countries considered to be “at peace”.
MPs cited the Israeli bombing of Al Jazeera and the Associated Press news agency in Gaza, which has been viewed as an attempt to silence journalists covering the Israeli military, and the Government of Belarus hijacking a plane containing journalist Roman Protasevich.

‘
One person’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter’ is a flowery way of saying actions can be interpreted differently, depending on your viewpoint.
It’s a scenario acclaimed Chinese artist Ai Weiwei has often encountered and, unfortunately, is in again.
He fled his homeland for being deemed too controversial for the state’s strict censorship. He’s recounted how he was arrested, beaten by Chinese police, placed under house arrest and then imprisoned for tax evasion.
