Number Of Jailed Journalists Remains High 361 journalists were imprisoned as a result of their work as of December 1, 2024, according to data from the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ).  Statista's Anna Fleck points out that this number was the second highest on record since the CPJ started collecting this data in 1992, following only after 2022 when at least 369 journalists were incarcerated.    You will find more infographics at Statista These figures do not include those who were jailed and released throughout the year. At the end of 2024, China had the largest number of journalists held behind bars (50).  This is likely a low estimate, according to a CPJ report, since censorship makes it difficult to determine the exact number of imprisoned journalists.  The next top jailers of journalists were Israel (43), Myanmar (35), Belarus (31) and Russia (30). Together, these five countries accounted for more than half of the global total of imprisoned […]

A Matter Of Faith For many people around the world, religion plays a prominent role in their everyday lives, while others embrace secular ideas.  As Statista's Felix Richter reports, according to a Statista Consumer Insights survey, carried out between January 2024 and March 2025, many of the most religious countries in the world can be found in Africa and the Middle East.    You will find more infographics at Statista Among the countries included in the survey, Pakistan, Egypt and Nigeria scored highest with 99 percent of all adults in the surveyed age group professing to a religion. The most secular country in the survey was China, with only 17 percent of the adult population saying that they followed a religion.  The number is not surprising given the fact that religious faith was marginalized under Communism in the country.  Other relatively secular places in Asia included Vietnam, Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong. In Europe, Czechia (30 percent follow […]

Is There More To The Fetterman Story? Authored by Christopher Nicholas via RealClearPennsylvania, So the big recent exposé on Sen. John Fetterman in New York Magazine has many Republicans trying to excuse his erratic behavior by claiming his Senate staff “dimed” him out because of his evolution into a hard-core supporter of Israel. That alone does not come close to passing the smell test. It’s clear Fetterman’s staff is at war with their boss, and it’s impossible for a senator to serve our large and diverse state with that distraction at hand. Perhaps it was their way of pushing the senator to return into some form of treatment? Either way, having our senior U.S. Senator’s office hamstrung like this is not a good thing for Pennsylvania. But first, some background. The new phrase we’re all learning now, since we’re living in it, is the “attention economy.” As the Berkeley Economic Review noted: “The term ‘attention economy’ was coined by […]

The Louisiana Purchase And Pragmatic Presidential Power Authored by Frank Cogliano via RealClearHistory, On April 30th, 1803, American diplomats in Paris reached an agreement with the French government to purchase the Louisiana Territory for approximately $16 million. It’s a massive but imprecisely defined tract of land between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains, north of modern Texas.  According to the treaty’s terms, the United States would acquire approximately 828,000 square miles of territory, including the port of New Orleans. The territory included approximately 60,000 non-Native settlers (French, Spanish, African, and creole – half of whom were enslaved) and around 150,000 Native Americans. The Louisiana Treaty was the result of prolonged negotiations between the U.S., France, and Spain over access to the Mississippi River. After the Spanish closed New Orleans to Americans in 1802, President Thomas Jefferson persuaded Congress to appropriate […]
