bckspc writes "The Committee to Protect Journalists today released the results of its annual survey of journalists in prison. For the first time, they found more Internet journalists jailed worldwide than journalists working in any other medium. CPJ found that 45 percent of all media workers jailed worldwide are bloggers, Web-based reporters, or online editors. Their chart of journalists jailed by year is also interesting. Does the sudden increase in jailed journalists in 2001 reflect the rising popularity of the Internet? Or is it a result of "counterterrorism" measures?"
