Bangladesh: The most dangerous place to be a journalist

Posted by Ruth Bayliss on May 4, 2004 at 1:38 PM

Take a look at this article by Patricia Nunan at Voice of America News. The article recognises that the annual results of the Reporters Without Borders report points to Bangladesh as being the most dangerous place in the world to be a journalist. According to the article "the study says not a day went by in 2003 without a Bangladeshi journalist being physically attacked or threatened with death." Its depressing to hear that according to Reporters without Borders "the Bangladeshi government does little to stop such violence because officials are very often involved." The report can be accessed through the Reporters Without Borders website.
