The Foreign Press Association joins our colleagues at the Israeli journalists’ association in expressing its deepest concern over Israel’s proposed defamation law. This legislation is a clear attempt to intimidate and stifle the country’s media. We urge the prime minister, his Cabinet and the Knesset to back down from these measures, stand up in support of democracy and free speech, and cancel this bill immediately. 
 

UPCOMING EVENTS:
 

Members will be informed as soon as we have confirmation for our next pres event.

The FPA is regularly asked to provide membership lists for surveys and other purposes by organizations, PR companies and other bodies. We wish to clarify unequivocably that the organization has never provided special membership lists or electronic email address lists to any institution or authority whatsoever for any reason whatsoever and will not do so.
