There's an interactive map ( starting from 2002 ) that also provides additional country-specific information - here's the link https://rsf.org/en/index

May 3, 2025 is #PressFreedomDay. But press freedom is precisely what is hardly available on traditional social networks. So let’s pause and stop posting, liking and swiping on the networks of the surveillance capitalists for a day – to save the democratic power of the internet.
Because WE are social media. #SaveSocialDay

"#PressFreedom around the world is being threatened by the very people who should be its guarantors – political authorities. This is clear from the latest annual #WorldPressFreedomIndex produced by #ReportersWithoutBorders (#RSF). This finding is based on the fact that, of the five indicators used to compile the ranking, it is the political indicator that has fallen most, registering a global average fall of 7.6 points."

But personal attacks against civil society groups, academics, and those who criticize government policy is apparently fair game…

RT @CDN_WPF
"Any democracy needs a free, independent and thriving press ... I've seen the attacks that were made by some politicians towards journalists. It is disappointing, but more so it's worrying," says @Chris_Bittle, parliamentary secretary to the Heritage Minister on #PressFreedomDay
