The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) today released an updated version of its journalist security handbook, titled "On Assignment: A Guide to Reporting in Dangerous Situations." This new edition, which is available in hard copy and online, draws on lessons learned in the most recent war in Iraq and includes advice on coping with the sustained risks that so many local journalists and their families confront on a daily basis.
The handbook, which is geared toward editors and journalists, provides a comprehensive overview of security issues, as well as resources and practical information on topics ranging from training and insurance to body armor and the rules of war. While CPJ recognizes that no handbook or training course can guarantee a journalist's safety, being better prepared can help to minimize the risks journalists face.
