*#HandsOffGreenwald*

Intercept investigative journalist Glenn Greenwald has been falsely charged
with crimes in Brazil related to his reporting on corruption. Join us in
defending freedom of the press by condemning the Brazilian government for
this assault on a fundamental right!

*Glenn Greenwald, *an investigative journalist at The Intercept,* was
charged with “cybercrimes” in Brazil *for reporting the truth about
prosecutorial misconduct and corruption. CODEPINK is proud to join Glenn,
numerous press freedom and civil liberties organizations, as well as
members of the international community in condemning this *shameless attack
on the press* by the Brazilian government of President Jair Bolsonaro.

The more people denounce this assault on a fundamental freedom, the more
likely it becomes that President Bolsonaro will finally understand that his
attacks on the media — not to mention his attacks on indigenous peoples,
women, the LGBTQ community, Afro-Brazilians and others — have gone too far.

*Join us by signing this petition demanding that the Brazilian government
take their hands off Glenn Greenwald!

The charges against Glenn represent a straightforward attempt to intimidate
and retaliate against him and The Intercept for their critical reporting
that appeared to show a judge advising federal prosecutors how to prosecute
cases he was presiding over in “Operation Car Wash”, a wide-ranging
investigation into corruption that unjustly resulted in the impeachment of
previous president Dilma Rousseff and the imprisonment of former president
Lula da Silva. Further, by charging Greenwald with a cybercrime, the
government has essentially criminalized engaging in legitimate journalistic
practices, which threatens to have a chilling effect on journalists and
sources alike.

While it might seem that a petition denouncing a foreign government is just
symbolic — it isn’t. International pressure could compel President
Bolsonaro to drop the charges. Furthermore, we know that President
Bolsonaro likes to borrow from President Trump’s playbook and vice versa,
so we need to be active in our defense of journalists before President
Trump gets similar ideas.

*Stand up for journalists worldwide by adding your name to the petition to
defend Glenn Greenwald.
