"When reporters are arrested, assaulted or otherwise prevented from doing their jobs, it’s not an attack on just a...journalist or a media company. It’s an attack on everyone's rights to be informed & to hold those in power accountable for their actions." https://t.co/my1WE5liMC

Without these journalists, the view would be so limited. Worse yet, it would likely be filled with "alternative truths." #truthmatters @GMasonSPJ

[Society of Professional Journalists @spj_tweets]

"Reporters, many of whom have spent nearly a year with no physical newsroom... wrote articles from cars and backyard sheds, searched for cell service on overloaded towers and met deadlines as their water pipes burst and gas leaked into their homes." https://t.co/SSkHPFyRHO
