Emil O W Kirkegaard

New levels of delusion. Journos can't take being called out on their bias and fakery by Trump et al, gotta fake another list! In _real_ dangerous places for journalists, they end up dead or in prison with the key thrown away. I don't see what good delusional self pity does..https://twitter.com/RVAwonk/status/1078097263468167176 …

> end up dead "Meanwhile, the shooting deaths of five employees of the capital gazette newspaper in Annapolis, Maryland, in June propelled the United States into the ranks of the most dangerous countries for the first time."

No evidence of political motivation. Arguably reporters without borders should care about political oppression only. Actions brought about by a private individual on personal grounds aren't political.

So? @KirkegaardEmil made no mention of political oppression, so either he didn't read the article before blasting it, or he chose not to mention that there were actual dead American reporters used in the criteria.

Again, so? You made no mention of that line of argumentation in your tweet, which implied no journalists died in America last year. And only ~60 journalists died worldwide; you could say any one of those events is insignificant.

The implicature is that no journalists died due to political oppression, due the status of journalists as political actors, which is what RSF cares about all along. Yes, some journalists of Capital Gazette were murdered, but that is irrelevant to RSF's mission.
