"Donald Trump has grown into a key figure in a global anti-journalism political
movement that has contributed to a recent decline in press freedom globally,
and is currently on full display in the United States just six months into his
second administration. Anti-press regimes around the world frequently borrow
tactics from one another, from the verbal harassment of journalists to
dismantling independent media outlets. Whether intentional or not, they share a
playbook to control, bully and punish independent media."
