The Committee to Protect Journalists has released a report “The silencing crime: sexual violence and journalists”. They have spoken to over 50 journalists who are survivors of sexual assault while on the beat.

The report exposes cultural and professional stigmatization that continues to exist in newsrooms, and communities, around the world.
