Where do journalists find the guts to keep telling the
truth?
Organizations such as the Committee to Protect
Journalists and Reporters sans frontiÃ¨res bring us the
death toll from around the world, and that number is
truly daunting: since 1992 more than 835 journalists
have been killed - nearly three-quarters of them targeted
and assassinated. Over 90 percent of the fallen have
been local journalists trying to unveil violence and
corruption in their own backyards. Worse, 95 percent of
the people who ordered their murders remain
unpunished. These shocking numbers, however, do not
help us to know the journalists who have sacrificed
literally everything for the story. And so, for four years,
investigative reporter Terry Gould has given himself
over to that quest, traveling to the five countries in
which it is most dangerous to be a journalist - Iraq, the
Philippines, Russia, Colombia and Bangladesh - in
order to bring us back unforgettable portraits of seven
murdered journalists who carried on despite death
threats from terrorists, corrupt politicians, gangsters and
paramilitary leaders.isbn-9788188861118
