Welcome to the new ASNE.org!

Today marks a fresh start for the American Society of News Editors with an updated website and new features to help you be a more effective newsroom leader.

The new ASNE.org is fully responsive, making for ease of use from smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices.  We’ve also established new sections with featured content on the organization’s top priorities: First Amendment, Leadership and Diversity

From leading your news organization through transition and change to best practices for engaging diverse readers, you’ll find useful, actionable information at the new ASNE.org. Check out Inside the Newsroom, your new home for articles that help you lead and inspire your team.

Those seeking leadership talent can also take advantage of the new ASNE Job Board, where ASNE member news organizations can post openings at no charge. 

Special thanks to ASNE Senior Information Specialist Megan Schumacher and Communications Coordinator Jiyoung Won for their efforts on the website revamp.

ASNE condemns Trump's attempt at press censorship

The American Society of News Editors stands against presidential candidate Donald Trump's attempts to censor news coverage of his campaign by denying access to outlets whose coverage does not correspond to his wishes, the latest being The Washington Post. Candidate Trump's move to sanction coverage of his drive to win the presidency is an unprecedented dismissal of the First Amendment freedoms essential to our democracy. The public is best served when a fearless, unfettered and independent press is present at all campaign events, speeches and political forums. We urge the Republican Party to return to its historical support for openness and transparency and call on both the party and its presumptive nominee to reverse course on these undemocratic sanctions and attempts at censorship. In the meantime, we encourage news outlets to ignore, reject and oppose all unconstitutional restrictions that any party, candidate or government official attempts to impose.
