Reporters Without Borders Sweden: The Self Censoring Ad, 1Top 6: February 8th 2023
On January 1st, a new Espionage Act came to effect in Sweden. An amendment to the constitution that criminalizes whistleblowers, leading to censorship and threatening free speech as we know it. To shine a light on this alarming development, Reporters Without Borders Sweden launched a self-censoring campaign. On the brink of the new year, they collaborated with Sweden’s largest daily newspaper and agency Åkestam Holst NoA, creating a full-page ad that demonstrated how objective journalism is literally fading away. The ad, featured in the December 31 edition of the paper, was partially printed with a specially designed CO2-sensitive ink. So just in time for January 1st, the ad had begun to censor itself.
