Unions and Associations
Reporters may obtain union representation from the National Writers Union and the NewsGuild-Communication Workers of America. They also may join professional associations such as the Society of Professional Journalists. Other useful organizations for reporters include the American Society of Journalists and Authors, National Association of Broadcasters, Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication, News/Media Alliance, and Online News Association. Journalism organizations at the local and state level also provide useful resources.
