Can you imagine A Day Without News?
One year ago, legendary correspondent Marie Colvin and photojournalist Remi Ochlik were killed in Homs, Syria. Evidence from eye witnesses suggests that the journalists were targeted by the Syrian regime in an attempt to limit exposure of the war’s atrocities. Their deaths struck an industry still reeling from a string of tragic losses, including the deaths of photojournalists Chris Hondros and Tim Hetherington in Misrata, Libya, in April 2011.
Watch the U.N. Secretary General’s message of support
“It is unacceptable that those looking to report objectively from conflict zones around the world are deliberately singled out, targeted and murdered with impunity, with those responsible for their deaths not facing any repercussions. Without these journalists bearing witness, atrocities committed in war would go unremarked and it is an equal cruelty that their deaths go without justice. This is a situation that has to change. We are heading towards a day when it will be too dangerous for journalists to enter into or report from war zones.” - Aidan Sullivan, Vice President, Photo Assignments, Editorial Partnerships and Development for Getty Images and founder of A Day Without News?
A Day Without News?, launching today, will raise awareness of the risks faced by journalists and photojournalists in war zones, and lobby governments and tribunals to pursue and prosecute those who harm members of the news media. Many media professionals find themselves deliberately targeted when attempting to cover conflicts, and, while it is considered a war crime to do so, there has been little to no enforcement of this international humanitarianlaw. Over the past decade, 945 photojournalists and correspondents have been killed while covering conflict zones, 583 of these without any resulting prosecutions as war crimes. Ninety journalists were killed in 2012 alone, the deadliest year on record.
Please visit A Day Without News? to learn more and to add your name in support.
Lynsey Addario speaks with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour about the A Day Without News campaign:
Addario: ‘It’s very clear that it is much more dangerous to cover Syria now than it has been to cover war in the past’
Amanpour: ‘Imagine a world without journalists. It’s every dictator’s dream. At the top of every tyrant’s wishlist. And as we’ve seen, in far to many parts of the globe, it is a terrifying reality.’
Photographers Tadas Kazakevicius and Darius Chmieliauskas had returned home after shooting a photo story in 2011 when they realized that they had no place to show their images. In their native Lithuania there were no dedicated websites for sharing documentary photo essays and connecting with other photographers. To solve the problem, they started Latitude55. The website, which takes its name from Lithuania’s location at the 55th parallel, has become a support group as well, offering advice and collective wisdom to Lithuanian photographers.
At some point, almost every photographer has discovered one of their images bouncing around the internet without any credit. Marksta, a new app developed by Reportage Featured Photographer John D McHugh, allows users to easily add watermarks to images taken on their iPhones. For a limited time, it’s free on iTunes.
UPDATE: As of Jan. 28, Marksta has been launched for the iPad. Some other new features are EXIF/IPTC preservation, Flickr integration, and hashtagging for Tumblr, Flickr and Instagram.
