Wild that in the article they mention Isreal has killed more than three times as many journalists as China has jailed. These numbers seem raw to me too, meaning not per capita. If Isreal was as populous as China and continued arresring Journalists at the same per capita rate they would have arrested over 6,500 journalist last year to get a sense of the absolutely wild difference in scale.
If you read into the article, it states
The annual CPJ report, which represents a snapshot of journalists jailed for their work as of Dec. 1, 2024, found 361 journalists behind bars around the world. That’s the second-highest number that CPJ has documented since it started keeping track in 1992.
So, in case anybody was wondering, yes, this is referring to journalists who were “jailed for their work,” and not just journalists who are in jail for whatever reason. I know you might have thought that was obvious, but I think it’s important to point these things out for other cases where the reporting might be more misleading.
