Fast and Furious: The U.S. Crackdown on Press Freedom Amidst Global Autocracy
Join the Committee to Protect Journalists for a discussion providing insights into what is happening in the U.S. and how it aligns with other countries where autocratic leaders have diminished the press. We will delve into the parallels and implications, drawing lessons and potential solutions to hold the line and stem the tide of unprecedented attacks on the press. The event will showcase the findings of CPJ’s report on press freedom 100 days into the Trump administration (published on April 30).
