The panel features scholars and writers offering perspectives on news media and investigative journalism as a global authoritarian turn erodes norms of press freedom. The varied playbook of intimidation includes the use of laws on libel to sanction commercial print media outlets, withdrawal of funding, surveillance and physical attacks on journalists, and the criminalization of dissent under vague national security and defamation laws. Panelists will discuss how regimes of India, China, the United States and the UK, have tried to restrict if not control what journalists and writers produce, as well as coping strategies that deployed in response.
