Review of UK and world papers and coverage of UK and global journalism stories for Journalism History Sunday 21st July 2024.
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.

The CIoJ calls on Russia to immediately release Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich. His detention, secret trial and 16 year jail sentence are wholly unjustifiable and political state hostage-taking. He has been deprived of his liberty for 480 days since 29th March 2023 #FreeEvan
The Institute calls on Belarus to release the more than 40 journalists and media workers detained including Maryna Zolatava and Liudmila Chekina each suffering 12 year jail terms.
