WHY ADVERTISE?

Advertising in the NABJ convention program book is an excellent way to reach 3,000 journalists, students and media-related professionals. We're talking about writers, editors, producers, photographers, reporters, communications specialists, news anchors, columnists, journalism students, journalism educators and more.

These are the people who help shape the way America thinks. They are highly-educated, well-read and well-traveled. They are affluent, thinkers, leaders with influence not only through the news you see every day, but also in our families and in our communities. But most important to you they are consumers. And they will be together in one place, at our convention and career fair, and reading and keeping the convention program book.

WHO SHOULD ADVERTISE?

Recruiters support your diversity recruiting efforts and diversify your news coverage.

Media organizations expose journalists to your career, training and fellowship opportunities, and students to your scholarship and internship opportunities.

Journalism schools and media institutes promote your faculty openings, fellowships, training opportunities and scholarships.

Subject experts advertise availability for media interviews and expert commentary.

Authors promote the sales of your new book.

Publishers tell experienced writers how you can facilitate their authoring experience.

Computer & technology products and services tell journalists how you can make them better at their jobs in an industry that is increasingly reliant on technology.
