World Press Freedom Day:

Stop Jailing Journalists campaign : How can you help? In many ways: By publishing, for example, the editorial and advertising materials that WAN has made available on this site. They include interviews, articles, cartoons, print-ready advertisements, and the stories of these jailed journalists. Or by taking direct action and sending protest letters on behalf of your newspaper to the jailers. We encourage you to participate in the campaign against the jailing of journalists by using some or all of these materials in your newspaper on 3 May or on the nearest day on which you publish. Newspapers can freely publish the ads, with credit to WAN. Print and video ads may be downloaded at the following site: http://www.worldpressfreedomday.org/
