Reporting Libya, a Tally

Via Committee to Protect Journalists:

CPJ has documented more than 70 attacks on the press since political unrest erupted in Libya last month. They include two fatalities, a gunshot injury, 45 detentions, 11 assaults, two attacks on news facilities, the jamming of Al-Jazeera and Al-Hurra transmissions, at least four instances of obstruction, the expulsion of two international journalists, and the interruption of Internet service. At least six local journalists are missing amid speculation they are in the custody of security forces. One media support worker is also unaccounted for.

The CPJ is keeping daily tally on reporting conditions in the country.
