“Almost every month since then, one or two journalists have been killed.”
“In 25 cases (45%), Reporters Without Borders is sure they were deliberately killed, a much higher rate than in earlier wars, when journalists were usually the victims of indiscriminate attacks and stray bullets,” according to the report.
In February, CNN's chief news executive Eason Jordan quit over remarks in which he accused American forces of targeting journalists in Iraq.
