Investigative journalists

At the beginning of a new Presidential Administration in the US, and perhaps a new era in US-Greece relations, Kathimerini English Edition is partnering with the Hellenic American Leadership Council (HALC) to create an expanded Greek Current podcast.

"We are powerless." This phrase could have been the main takeaway from the documentary presented by Kathimerini Executive Editor Alexis Papachelas on the deadly fires in eastern Attica last year, which aired on Thursday on Greek broadcaster Skai. It was the voice of an employee who worked at one of the state agencies that had a leading role on that fateful day.

The French and German ambassadors to Greece condemned Monday's bomb attack on Skai TV and Kathimerini newspaper during a visit to the headquarters of the media group in southern Athens Tuesday.

According to the annual round-up of Reporters Without Borders released on Tuesday, a total of 110 journalists were killed in connection with their work or for unclear reasons in the course of 2015.

At least 67 of these journalists were killed while reporting or because of their work, with the circumstances or motives behind the murder of the remaining 43 remaining unclear.
