In various Latin American countries, journalists must navigate oppression to report freely. They work against authoritarianism, corrupt judicial systems, and repressive, radical governments. In a recent #DiálogoCONNECTAS discussion organized by ICFJ, IJNet and CONNECTAS,  journalists from Cuba, Bolivia, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Venezuela discussed the realities they face. In these countries, despite media outlets closing and attacks against them, journalists are developing strategies to keep at their reporting. They face persecution by police and the military, stigmatization by those in power, court-ordered raids, intimidation and illegal wiretapping, among other threats.
