Khashoggi’s Murder, Jamal’s Fiancée Hatice Cengiz Calls for Justice

Gaia Pianigiani’s Beauty of Journalism: Freedom Will Always Have a Future

She thinks that journalists are “artisans of words,” and that, in order to carry out this profession every day, you need care, precision, and inventiveness, just like a craftsman.

On October 2 Jamal Khashoggi, a Saudi columnist for The Washington Post and a U.S. resident, entered Saudi Arabia's Consulate in Istanbul but has not been seen since. Turkish officials say they believe Khashoggi was murdered in the Saudi Consulate. This would serve as another example of the extent of the repercussions journalists might face for simply voicing their concern towards a regime.
