The Journalist magazine
Welcome to The Journalist, the magazine of the National Union of Journalists.
The Journalist is published six times a year and aims to give members comprehensive news and features on their industries and the union's activities. It is available here on the website and can be posted directly to members.Since Press Gazette moved to online publication only, the Journalist is the only specialist publication dedicated to the media available in print.
The Journalist reflects the work and aspirations of the union, but, importantly, it is totally independent of the union's leadership.
The editor of the magazine is elected by the union’s members. This is unique in the union movement and ensures our own publication accords with the standards we expect in media organisations – that the editorial process should be independent of ownership.
For many members, the Journalist is the only regular contact they have with the union.
Our industries are in a process of fast and enormous change and it is important that we keep abreast of news, issues and trends. We welcome comments, suggestions and feature and news ideas and encourage readers to contribute to our inbox section to make points and exchange views. The best way to do this is to our email [email protected].
