Map of the Week #7



Usually out on October 20th of each year, the Press Freedom Index by Reporters Sans Frontières sorts each county by press freedom. In the 2009 report, the United States is currently ranked 20th in the world (tied with Luxembourg and the United Kingdom), with a best score since the 2004 report. The representations on the map has a color scheme that transitions from green to yellow, then yellow to red, going from the greatest press freedom to the least. The interactive map can be accessed here.
