Reporters Without Borders: Press, 2

With over 300 locations across Sweden, Pressbyrån is no ordinary convenience chain. Founded more than a century ago to distribute newspapers, the brand has always been rooted in journalism. On World Press Freedom Day, it partnered with Reporters Without Borders to send a powerful message – replacing half its logo with real frontline images, showing the world what “Press” truly means. The idea ties back to the company’s founding philosophy, as half the logo is replaced with gritty reminders of the current state of the world. A simple yet powerful visual statement showing reporters in the line of fire, quite literally, what “Press” stands for in Pressbyrån. The images were executed in collaboration with photographers Abbas Momani, Jaafar Ashtiyeh, Abed Zagout, and Mohamed Asad. The campaign was launched in parallel with the 2025 Press Freedom Index, from Reporters Without Borders. This year's report shows a historic low in press freedom and journalist conditions. Among other alarming facts, it's worth noting that less than 1% of the world's global population lives in a country with good press freedom.
