In light of Eason Jordan's comments and the discourse still swirling around them, I thought this web page from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization might be of interest.

The referenced "UNESCO Remembers Assassinated Journalists" web site presents a 3 page listing of "assassinated journalists and media workers" complete with who they worked for, where they were killed and a link to a UNESCO statement regarding the killing.

The page looks to be updated on a timely enough basis to be relatively current.

H.R. 1146 will WITHDRAW the USA from the United Nations' madhouse/cesspool. UNESCO traditionally has been filled to the brim with countries that do NOT believe in freedom of speech.
The United Nations is a corrupt disgrace and it is time for the USA to WITHDRAW from and defund the United Nations. Please tell your senators, congressmen and everyone you know to support Representative Ron Paul’s bill H.R. 1146 which would WITHDRAW the USA from the United Nations, prohibit US funds going to the UN and prohibit US troops serving under UN command. H.R 1146 is the American Sovereignty Restoration Act.
The whole mission of the UN is to take power, money and national sovereignty from the USA. Thus the United States must withdraw from and defund the UN and if we go, if we are lucky, the whole thing will implode.

UNESCO encourages press freedom and campaigns for greater safety of media professionals.

Welllll now, it sure sounds like Eason Jordan was actually working for UNESCO. Wonder if Jordan's 'so-called' list jives with UNESCO's?
