Review of UK and world papers and coverage of UK and global journalism stories for Journalism History for Saturday 2nd December 2023.

Journalism is the first draft of history and these daily reports seek to provide an online briefing of the history of journalism for each day featured.

The Chartered Institute of Journalists remembers all the professional journalists and media workers murdered and killed while doing their work this year in all parts of the world and remember the immense sacrifice of those who gave their lives to the profession in the past. We send our condolences to their families, friends and professional colleagues.

Camilla Tominey writes for Telegraph: ‘Ownership of The Telegraph must not be handed to a misogynist state. This paper has a proud history of promoting women’s voices, including mine. It has to be able to continue in that vein.’ See: https://twitter.com/CIoJournalist/status/1730684890570514619

The CIoJ calls on Russia to immediately release Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich. His detention is wholly unjustifiable and political state hostage-taking. He has been deprived of his liberty for 248 days since 29th March 2023 #FreeEvan

The Institute calls on Belarus to release 35 journalists detained including Maryna Zolatava and Liudmila Chekina each suffering 12 year jail terms. Belarus is currently ranked 157th out of 180 countries in the World Press Freedom Index. See: https://rsf.org/en/belarus-supreme-court-upholds-journalists-12-year-jail-terms

The CIoJ remains concerned about the trials and sentencing of Belarus journalist Roman Protasevich and his friend Sofia Sapega following their abduction from a diverted Ryanair flight 23rd May 2021 which is now 923 days ago. See: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-65670820

The CIoJ calls on all governments and states unjustly detaining journalists for doing their professional work to respect freedom of expression, the right to liberty and free them immediately. See: https://rsf.org/en/new-record-number-journalists-jailed-worldwide
