2016 ASNE Diversity Survey needs your participation

 
ASNE launched the 2016 Newsroom Employment Diversity Survey, previously known as the Newsroom Employment Census, which began in 1978. When your organization receives the survey in the email, please fill it out promptly and help us accurately measure the progress toward diversity in U.S. newsrooms. It's critical that we make online and newspaper newsrooms as diverse as the nation's population to provide fair and accurate coverage of communities and the country.
