About Hatred Towards the Press
The closure of Novaya Gazeta highlights the dangers faced by journalists in Russia, where press freedom is severely restricted. The assassination of Anna Politkovskaya and other journalists underscores the risks involved in reporting on government actions. Globally, press freedom is declining, with countries like Argentina and the U.S. experiencing increased hostility towards journalists. The U.S. has dropped significantly in press freedom rankings since Trump's presidency. Despite these challenges, Spain remains relatively better off compared to other major powers, while China ranks near the bottom for press freedom.
