as Legal Research Reports: Laws Protecting Journalists from Online Harassment By www.loc.gov Published On :: Wed, 11 Dec 2019 14:14:46 -0600 The Law Library of Congress is proud to present the report, Laws Protecting Journalists from Online Harassment. Attacks against journalists appear to be on the rise recently in countries around the world. These include attacks allegedly directed by governments or politicians, as well as by individuals displeased with their own media coverage or generally with the press.

This report is composed of a survey of relevant international law instruments and activities directed at protection against online threats and harassment of journalists, as well as individual surveys for 11 countries. This report is one of many prepared by the Law Library of Congress.
