Reporters Without Borders (RSF) expresses concern over two recent court cases that will serve as obstacles to independent reporting, related to the misuse of private information and source protection. These cases were heard against a broader backdrop of growing legal restrictions on the media, and could contribute to further deterioration of press freedom in the UK. RSF calls on the courts to avoid imposing unnecessary barriers to reporting.
