As has been the case with many media outlets in Latin America and Europe, the DR's standing in the 2009 Reporters Without Borders Press Freedom Index has taking a step back from its 2008 standing, and is now placed at #98 on the list. The standing is the worst of all Latin American states with democratically elected governments. The DR moved back nine places compared to 2008. The report takes into consideration reports in the national media, cases involving journalists and political attitudes towards the media. The DR has seen an increase in violence towards journalists in 2009.
