ABOUT
The American Society of News Editors and the Associated Press Media Editors joined forces to become the News Leaders Association. NLA empowers journalists at all levels with the training, support and networks they need to lead and transform diverse, sustainable newsrooms.
NLA advances the cause of quality professional journalism, and welcomes journalists, news leaders, academics and others to join us as members.
Our key programs include:
First Amendment: We support the First Amendment by keeping our membership informed of key legal and legislative developments and by initiating educational programs about the freedoms guaranteed by the First Amendment.
Leadership: We promote newsroom leadership by offering valuable training to news leaders, such as the Emerging Leaders Institute and NewsTrain. These programs are tailored to address the most pressing issues for leaders and the skills needed to lead and drive change.
Diversity: We believe that diverse newsrooms better cover America’s communities. Over three decades, our annual survey has shown that while there has been progress, the racial diversity of newsrooms does not come close to the fast-growing diversity in the U.S. population as a whole.
