A dangerous career: Journalism

The Guardian published a very interesting article about my career, and it isn’t so nice, not at all. The newspaper says that since 1992 over 880 journalists died in working.

And the moral is: “don’t go to work on Pakistan”, because the statistic provided by The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) shows that is the most dangerous country for the employees of the truth.

But the country that takes the plaudits is Iraq whit 151 journalist deaths since 1992 to 2011.

The Guardian state that there are not British journalist in the list of 2011, but claims that the death of Rupert Hamer from the Sunday Mirror was a traumatic experience about the tragic side of the career in 2010.

The statistic states that more than 880 “plumes” has gone from this violent world, the Guardian esteem that journalists are every day more danger facing. And the newspaper says that Iraq is the guilty.

The Committee to Protect Journalists says that 22% of the workers of the truth have been tortured before being killed, that number represents almost 194 people.

The Guardian makes his own statistical box from the study makes for The Committee to Protect Journalists and then shows the complete list of the journalists killed since 1992.
