Press freedom predator


Press freedom predator is an anti-award distributed every few years by Reporters Without Borders. It is attributed to heads of state or groups who are deemed to have a negative effect on press freedom.
Recipients often vehemently deny that they deserve their place on the list. In 2020, Reporters Without Borders also released a list of 20 press freedom's digital predators.
