About us

A hot cup coffee, fresh smelling paper and a bundle of pages filled with write ups and pictures. But has it ever occurred to you what goes in making the perfect paper every single day? Has anyone wondered that who are the faces who are behind the beautiful write ups in the newspaper that is kept on your doorstep every morning? There is so much spoken about how the newspaper industry works, what are the types of beats that is covered and how it is was a male dominating industry in the 1970’s and 80’s and how it has been changing in the past two decades and how women are emerging to be faces of various newspaper organizations.

Keeping the previous two decades in mind, this idea of the journal came up. There are so many things about women and journalism that has been long spoken – their safety, their working style, their “type” of beat and many more questions have been raised but has anyone found a proper answer to what was asked regarding women journalists?

This journal aimed at trying to answer few of the questions that are taking the rounds in the industry. The journal tried to reach as many journalists who have been or still the part of the age old industry and tried to understand the past, present and future of women journalists in the newspaper industry. We have also tried to cover as many topics as we could pertain to women journalists in the newspaper industry.

Warm Regards
