Diversity In Elections
During elections, journalists frequently cover rallies, campaign events, and protests, which can increase their risk of being attacked, harassed, and detained.
Journalists covering elections can also find themselves targeted digitally, subject to online abuse and intimidation.
CPJ has created a series of resources intended to help journalists better prepare for election-related assignments, or to cope with any resulting safety concerns or harassment.
