Reporters Without Border survey: US authorities in Irak ranked low
In The Guardian, Claire Cozens wrote about the third worldwide press freedom ranking conducted by Reporters Without Borders . 167 countries were included in the survey. "The US authorities in Iraq have been ranked as one of the biggest dangers to journalists in the world, worse than the regime in Georgia and Afghanistan in a new global survey of press freedom. They have been ranked 108th by Reporters Without Borders, putting them just above Cambodia and only 11 places ahead of the Palestinian Authority in terms of safety. The press freedom organisation said it had given the US its own separate ranking in the war-torn country because of the number of journalists killed by US army gunfire. Overall, Iraq was ranked 148th in the world. "
