"值此国际日之际,我向那些不顾恐吓和威胁,每天做好本职工作的新闻记者表示敬意。他们的工作——以及他们已经牺牲的同事的工作——提醒我们,真相永远不会消亡。我们致力于维护表达自由这一基本权利的承诺也决不会消亡。" ——联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯“终止针对记者犯罪不受惩罚现象国际日”致辞。
从2006年至2017年,约有1010名记者在报道新闻和将信息带给公众的过程中被杀害。而在90%的案件中,凶手并未受到惩罚。有罪不罚现象导致了更多的杀戮,也往往是冲突恶化和法律和司法制度崩溃的征兆。

"On this day, I pay tribute to journalists who do their jobs every day despite intimidation and threats. Their work – and that of their fallen colleagues -- reminds us that truth never dies. Neither must our commitment to the fundamental right to freedom of expression."
— UN Secretary-General António Guterres, marking ‘UN International Day to End Impunity for Crimes against Journalists.
From 2006 to 2017, close to 1010 journalists have been killed for reporting the news and bringing information to the public. In nine out of ten cases the killers go unpunished. Impunity leads to more killings and is often a symptom of worsening conflict and the breakdown of law and judicial systems.
