The Society of Professional Journalists is dedicated to the perpetuation of a free press as the cornerstone of our nation and our liberty.

It is the role of journalists to provide this information in an accurate, comprehensive, timely and understandable manner. It is the mission of the Society of Professional Journalists: — To promote this flow of information. — To maintain constant vigilance in protection of the First Amendment guarantees of freedom of speech and of the press. — To stimulate high standards and ethical behavior in the practice of journalism. — To foster excellence among journalists. — To inspire successive generations of talented individuals to become dedicated journalists. — To encourage diversity in journalism. — To be the pre-eminent, broad-based membership organization for journalists. — To encourage a climate in which journalism can be practiced freely.

"But one image immediately stood out: Richard Drew’s searing photo of what would become known as 'The Falling Man.' I knew it had to be published and my colleagues agreed. I placed it on the cover page of our second news section, four columns by 15 inches. The New York Times published 'The Falling Man.' So did the Allentown (Pennsylvania) Morning Call. But most other newspapers chose not to publish it, fearing reader reaction." https://bit.ly/48MWBMw

Gabe Schneider, editorial director for LA Public Press, on collaborating with Los Angeles communities to improve civic media: "With LA Public Press, we are coming to things with explicit values. We believe that everybody should have access to clean water and housing. And we are also trying to center folks that are most impacted by policy. When you say those things, it might sound obvious. But I don’t really think there are many newsrooms that are comfortable saying those things, which I find strange and counterintuitive." https://bit.ly/46OnWwn
