2024 INTERNATIONAL PRESS FREEDOM AWARD WINNERS ANNOUNCED

Source: Committee to Protect Journalists

The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) announced the winners of its annual
International Press Freedom Awards. This year, the CPJ's honorees include four
women from four different continents — Shrouq Al Aila (Gaza), Alsu Kurmasheva
(Russia), Quimy de Léon (Guatemala), and Samira Sabou (Niger) — and the
posthumous recognition of Christophe Deloire, the longtime leader of Reporters
Without Borders, with the esteemed Gwen Ifill Press Freedom Award. The awards
ceremony will be held on November 21, 2024, in New York City, and the event's
master of ceremonies will be Last Week Tonight host John Oliver.


PULITZER PRIZE-WINNING NEWSROOM WINS PRESS FREEDOM AWARD WHILE BATTLING
DEFAMATION CASE

Source: The National Press Club (US)

The nonprofit, non-partisan site Mississippi Today was awarded the John Aubuchon
Press Freedom Award by the US National Press Club, as the newsroom battles an
ominous defamation case. The site, and reporter Anna Wolfe, were awarded a
Pulitzer Prize in 2022 for an investigation into US$77 million worth of misspent
welfare funds by the former state governor's office. That former governor sued
Mississippi Today in 2023 and is now trying to compel Wolfe and other members of
the editorial team to reveal the anonymous sources who tipped them off about the
misconduct. If the state's supreme court rules against them, the journalists
could face jail time for refusing to identify their sources.


NEW GIJN MEMBER INVESTIGATES HIDDEN OWNERSHIP OF GREEK MEDIA

Source: Solomon

Solomon, a Greek investigative site just inducted as a GIJN member, has released
the results of its comprehensive look at more than 800 media companies in the
country. To piece together the media landscape, the site's investigative team
"spent 18 months analyzing thousands of balance sheets, corporate disclosures,
and court rulings, tracing ownership structures across more than 30 countries."
The findings confirm that the nation's media groups are owned by a largely
opaque concentration of a few business interests and powerful families and echo
concerns raised by the European Federation of Journalists and Reporters.


GRANTS AVAILABLE FOR DATA INVESTIGATIONS INTO ENVIRONMENTAL CRIME

Source: Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime

The Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime (GITOC) has open
submissions for its ECO-SOLVE amplifying grants. The program is "designed to
fund initiatives that combat the illicit wildlife trade and timber trafficking"
and supports collaborative projects across the Americas, Africa, Southeast
Asia/Oceania, China, and India that "reduce gaps in law enforcement integration,
overcome institutional and political barriers to data sharing, and identify
innovative solutions." There will be four grants of €250,000 (US$275,000) each
and the projects will run for one year. Deadline is October 18, 2024 and grants
will begin in February 2025.


KYRGYZ SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS DECISION TO SHUT DOWN GIJN MEMBER KLOOP

Source: Committee to Protect Journalists

Investigative outlet — and GIJN member — Kloop lost it appeal to the Kyrgyz
Supreme Court, which upheld a lower court ruling that declared the outlet must
be dissolved. That initial decision from a year ago came in the wake of Kloop's
numerous corruption investigations into the country's president and other state
officials. "The forced shuttering of international award–winning investigative
outlet Kloop is a shameful episode in the history of modern Kyrgyzstan — a
country long viewed as a haven for press freedom in Central Asia — and is a
clear indication that under President Japarov this reputation no longer holds,”
said the CPJ's Gulnoza Said.

apply to become an IRE member online.) Taking place on October 17-19, 2024,
AccessFest focuses on expanding IRE’s efforts to provide more accessible
training and inclusion to improve newsrooms and coverage. It will also feature
the best data classes and investigative reporting sessions from IRE’s in-person
conferences this past year. Journalists, students, and educators of color are
eligible to apply for AccessFest fellowships.


FORMER POLITICIAN CONVICTED IN KILLING OF US INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER

Source: Committee to Protect Journalists

A jury in Las Vegas, Nevada, found a former politician guilty of the murder of
investigative reporter Jeff German. Robert Telles, previously a Clark County
public administrator, lost his re-election bid in the summer of 2022 after
German extensively reported on misconduct and possible corruption in Telles'
office. German, a veteran reporter for the Las Vegas Review-Journal, was found
dead outside his home several months later. "The conviction sends an important
message that the killing of journalists will not be tolerated,” said the CPJ's
Katherine Jacobsen. “It is vital that the murder of journalists should be taken
seriously and perpetrators held accountable.”


JOURNALISTS ARRESTED DURING DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION IN CHICAGO

Source: Reporters Without Borders

At least three journalists were arrested covering protests during the US
Democratic National Convention in Chicago. On Tuesday, August 20, a small group
of protesters gathered outside Chicago’s Israeli Consulate to protest the war in
Gaza. Overnight, according to the Chicago chapter of the National Lawyers Guild,
more than 70 people were arrested, including three credentialed journalists.
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) said the journalists’ credentials were seized
and that they were charged with disorderly conduct and failure to obey police.
Citing press freedom concerns, RSF called for all charges against the
journalists to be dropped.


APPLICATION DEADLINES APPROACHING FOR TWO FIJ GRANTS

Source: Fund for Investigative Journalism

The application periods for two different journalism grants from the Fund for
Investigative Journalism (FIJ) are coming to a close. FIJ's regular grants
program provides up to US$10,000 for stories that "break new ground and uncover
wrongdoing in the public or private sectors," but journalists must provide a
commitment from a news outlet as part of the application. FIJ's seed grants
program is aimed at freelancer reporters and offers up to US$2,500 for initial
research (open-records fees, travel, logistics costs) to solidify investigative
pitches. The regular grants deadline is end of day Sept. 9 and the seed grants
deadline is end of day Sept. 20.


TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHES NEW REPORT ON SECRET MONEY TRANSFERS
BETWEEN RUSSIA AND UK

Source: Transparency International Russia

A new report released by Transparency International (TI) Russia details a web of
illicit digital money transfers between Russia and the United Kingdom. According
to TI, this secret money channel over the past decade has allowed large
e-payments via verified business bank accounts and highlights "significant
regulatory gaps and the use of dark web marketplaces where these accounts are
sold, often registered under false identities with genuine documents." The
report also identified high-risk profiles, political exposed persons, and
complex corporate structures that "exacerbated" the risk of illegal money
transfers into the UK from Russia.
