Arsenal fans tonight — and all through this year — showing big love for The Wall Street Journal reporter and massive gooner Evan Gershkovich, unjustly jailed for a year in Russia.
We know he sees this and it lifts his spirits.

There are so many things Evan should have been able to do over the past year, so many trips he should’ve taken, so many stories he should’ve covered.
A beautiful piece by Eliot Brown about the year we’ve all had — and Evan hasn’t. 365 days today. wsj.com/world/russia/e…
Journalism is not a crime. #Russia must immediately release The Wall Street Journal reporter Evan #Gershkovich . His detention is unacceptable. Journalists must not become pawns in perfidious political maneuvers or the Kremlin’s political bargaining chips.
Get shot at, blown up and unjustly detained because you do your job well and go where others won’t.
Cover war like a champ because you know your stuff.
Break news regularly because you’re well-sourced.
And then get laid off.

This Easter let us pray for the The Wall Street Journal's Evan Gershkovich, and for press freedom around the world. After being arrested in Russia one year ago, Evan is still in pre-trial detention, confined to a small cell – with his detention having recently been extended.
Good Friday will mark…
Evan was my editorial assistant at The New York Times — a young journalist of integrity. It’s disgusting that he has been unjustly imprisoned for a year this month
