Media freedom has reached its lowest level for the past decade, according to a recent study by British non-governmental organization on the freedom of speech Article 19 and the V-Dem Social Science project. According to the study, the work of journalists is threatened by various factors, such as power censorship, organized crime, commercial pressures due to the growth of the Internet and others.
