Don't forget: National Newspaper Week is Oct. 6-12 - Entrepreneur Generations

Cartoon by Marc Murphy of the Louisville Courier Journal;
not part of the NNW resource package, but it's apropos.

Just a reminder: National Newspaper Week is coming up from October 6-12, and this year's theme is "Think F1rst — Know Your 5 Freedoms," a celebration of freedom of the press and its role in supporting democracy. The event is sponsored by Newspaper Association Managers, the consortium of North American trade associations representing newspapers on the state, regional and national level.

Organizers have provided a host of free resources you can use to help your local paper observe the week, including editorials, editorial cartoons, studies about the importance of journalism, and links to related sources like Trusting News and the U.S. Press Freedom Tracker.

The "Think F1rst" theme is an extension of a campaign developed in 2018 by Media of Nebraska; a number of other state broadcast and press associations adopted and expanded the program, relaunching it on a nationwide level in August 2019.
