Can’t find a source, but remember someone saying there weren’t enough unsolved murders in Denmark for there to be a serial killer. By comparison, it’s estimated the U.S. has 25-50 at any one time.

I like to think that if I had a daughter who was a journalist and she said “This weekend I’m going in a two-person submarine with a rich, obsessive, creepy dude who built it” - I’d suggest she didn’t.

Speaking of which, in Nat Geo this month a chart shows that the best places to live in the world are Costa Rica, Singapore and Denmark.

I’d live there.
Then again, I don’t chew gum.

This, though, is part of the problem. Women can’t get ahead if they make the smart choice (don’t do this story) and it’s unlikely a man would have met the same fate, so they don’t see the inherent risk and say women aren’t willing to pay their dues writing a “fluff piece”. She would have been labelled picky or a prima donna (or been fired) if she refused, but that non-refusal got her killed.
We’re damned if we don’t, dead if we do. That’s one hell of a fucking choice.

We’re less restrictive about pot over here.
And pot is a lot more fun and a lot less annoying.

This was in Denmark. I think you may be wrong.
Yeah, maybe I shouldn’t live in Singapore.
I can put up with dirty trousers.

Except she was also a freelancer, so @MalevolentPixy is totally right.
Besides, any journalist who refuses to speak to men alone or do anything nominally adventurous is in for a short, unfulfilling, boring career.
