"We can never tell what threats are going to materialize on the ground." HBO has revealed the trailer for a documentary titled Endangered, which is premiering at the 2022 Tribeca Film Festival later this week. The title is a spin on endangered species, about how journalists are endangered now with so many threats from fascists people all over the world. It's made by talented doc filmmakers Heidi Ewing & Rachel Grady (Jesus Camp, 12th & Delaware, Norman Lear: Just Another Version of You, One of Us) and opens later in June on HBO. An investigation of threats against journalists in the United States and internationally, from intimidation to physical violence, following four different journalists. "As newsrooms across the world face economic hardships and layoffs, conventional checks and balances against corrupt institutions of power are weakening; journalists are at the forefront of a dangerous culture war with the very right to free speech at the crux of it." As timely and as important as this is, I fear it won't offer ideas how to push back against this. ›››
