Recently, Freedom House, a U.S. based non-governmental organization, released its annual survey on Freedom of the Press. The current report points to "particularly worrisome trends in the former Soviet Union, Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa." The study reinforces the message of a new documentary about suppression of the Russian media and the murder of hundreds of Russian journalists since the fall of the Soviet Union. The film, called "211: Anna," focuses on Russian journalist and human rights activist Anna Politkovskaya who was murdered in 2006. She had reported extensively on alleged Russian links to war crimes in Chechnya, and was openly critical of Russia's then-President Vladimir Putin. VOA's Penelope Poulou has more.
