Group: Journalists jailed more in China
At least 31 journalists are behind bars in China, making it the world's leading jailer of reporters for the eighth year in a row, the Committee to Protect Journalists said in its annual survey released Thursday.

Cuba was the second biggest jailer of journalists, with 24 reporters in prison. Nearly all had filed their reports to overseas-based websites. Eritrea, which has imprisoned 23 journalists, was third.

The United States tied for seventh place on the list, having jailed three journalists.
