CJFE is collecting information from journalists who covered the G20 summit

TORONTO, July 5 /CNW/ - As a result of the many stories and reports we have been hearing from journalists who were covering the G20 Canadian Journalists for Free Expression ("CJFE") is conducting a survey of journalists who believe their freedom of expression was compromised by police/security personnel during the G-20 security operation. This collection of information will result in a public report by CJFE; the information and firsthand accounts from journalists is critical to the report. We are asking journalists who participated to complete a survey to help us in this task. If you know of others who have similar complaints, please advise us as soon as possible, or have them contact us directly.
