World’s press to support Chinese journalists on World Press Freedom Day
The World Association of Newspapers is asking newspapers world-wide to show their support for press freedom in China by publishing editorials, advertisements, political cartoons and other materials on 3 May, World Press Freedom Day. WAN, which has dedicated its World Press Freedom Day initiative to ‘The Olympic Challenge: Free the Press in China!’, is making the materials available at www.worldpressfreedomday.org. More than 30 journalists and 50 cyber-dissidents are in Chinese prisons, making China the world’s biggest jailer of journalists. The materials, which newspapers can use without charge, are available in English, French, Spanish, German, Russian and Chinese. For full details, go to www.worldpressfreedomday.org. (WAN)
