Jailed journalists on Google Earth

with one comment

You can now view journalists jailed around the world, courtesy of Reporters Sans Frontieres, thanks to a file made available by the Google Earth community here. I don’t know  if it will be regularly updated in the future. For now it features a few journalists in varied countries such as Cuba and China. Clicking on the pin will open a pop up giving you the named of the imprisoned journalist and a little description of the situation.
