More than 500 journalists have been targeted for murder, our research shows, and nearly nine in 10 of these slayings go unpunished. Another 200 journalists have been killed in combat or on dangerous assignments; their stories offer lessons in how to improve security and hold governments accountable. Through interactive maps, timelines, and statistical breakdowns, our new database provides analysis by country, year, and type of death. It puts a special emphasis on unsolved murders, a focal point of CPJ's Global Campaign Against Impunity.
