Kill a Journalist, 50 More Will Take Their Place: The Mission to Protect Stories

A new organization declares that assassinating a reporter will not silence their work. Forbidden Stories is a network that continues investigations started by journalists who have been stopped. This happens through extreme intimidation or murder. "We operate on a key principle: if one reporter is killed, 50 others will rise," says founder Laurent Richard. The group's mission is to take over and publish these "forbidden" stories, ensuring the truth is revealed. Much of its current focus involves environmental reporting. By protecting these crucial stories, Forbidden Stories aims to deter violence against the press. The message to those who threaten journalists is clear: killing the messenger will not kill the story.
