The dangerous search for the truth
By Guest Author on January 12th, 2012
The work of a journalist is hard, 
often thankless and always dangerous. In 2011, 66 journalists were killed while on the job in Africa, the Middle-East, Asia, the Americas and Europe.
In 2011, 1044 journalists were arrested, nearly double that of the 535 arrested in 2010.
The most dangerous of these places is Pakistan. Ten Journalists were killed in that country alone last year, making it the most dangerous country for a journalist to work in. The Middle-East is also especially dangerous to work in, as 20 journalists were killed during the Arab Spring uprising.
