2010 Safety of Journalists ...

President Barack Obama said on the occassion of World Press Freedom Day, "Last year was a bad one for the freedom of the press worldwide. While people gained greater access than ever before to information through the Internet, cell phones and other forms of connective technologies, governments like China, Ethiopia, Iran, and Venezuela curtailed freedom of expression by limiting full access to and use of these technologies. Moreover, more media workers were killed for their work last year than any year in recent history."^[1]
