While journalists around the world face violent threats for their work, attacks against media offices like Thursday's deadly shooting inside a US newsroom are relatively rare.
In the latest bloodshed, at least five people are known to have died after a gunman opened fire at the Capital Gazette newspaper offices in the US city of Annapolis.
