Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) is headquartered in New York City. According to their website, "When press freedom violations occur, CPJ mobilizes a network of correspondents who report and take action on behalf of those targeted. CPJ reports on violations in repressive countries, conflict zones, and established democracies alike. A board of prominent journalists from around the world helps guide CPJ's activities"[1] The Committee to Protect Journalists claims that their "mission involves not only journalists but anyone who cherishes the value of information for a free society."
History
Verbatim from their website:[2]
- "The Committee to Protect Journalists was founded in 1981 by a group of U.S. correspondents who realized they could not ignore the plight of colleagues whose reporting put them in peril on a daily basis.
- "The idea that journalists around the world should come together to defend the rights of colleagues working in repressive and dangerous environments led to CPJ's first advocacy campaign in 1982. At the time, three British journalists-Simon Winchester, Ian Mather, and Tony Prime were arrested in Argentina while covering the Falklands War. A letter from CPJ Honorary Chairman Walter Cronkite helped spring them from prison.
- "Since then, CPJ's mission involves not only journalists but anyone who cherishes the value of information for a free society."
