CNJO members advocate strategic professional training

The digital revolution is not only transforming journalism but also calling on journalists to reinvent themselves. To do that, journalists, their news and professional organizations and journalism and mass communication programs need to rouse themselves, without delay, to undertake sophisticated, strategic, solution-oriented training.

Five journalism organizations join CNJO

Five organizations, the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies, Broadcast Education Association, National Newspaper Association, Newspaper Guild, and the Quill and Scroll Society, joined the Council of National Journalism Organizations this month. The groups were admitted at the Council's semiannual meeting, at the convention of the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication in San Francisco.


Aid for journalists affected by Hurricane Katrina

Many members of the Council of National Journalism Organizations set up relief funds for journalists suffering from the effects of Hurricane Katrina and its aftermath. If you are concerned about tax deductibility, please ask the group seeking donations.
