United States: CFWIJ Condemns The Brutal Attack Against Journalist Erin Schaff At Capitol Hill

Photojournalist Erin Schaff for The New York Times was assaulted by Trump supporters during the insurrection at Capitol Hill. Schaff was capturing images during the US riots when security was breached at the building. She was surrounded by a group of men who pushed her to the floor and snatched her press credentials. The Coalition For Women In Journalism is utterly dismayed by the brutal attack against Erin. We stand in solidarity with the journalist and appreciate her fearless and continuous work despite the attacks she faced.
