Newspaper Research Journal (NRJ)

Newspaper Research Journal is a long‑standing, quarterly peer‑reviewed academic journal that has been published continuously since 1979. It serves as a leading research forum for scholarship on the newspaper industry and journalism practice, drawing contributions from communication scholars, media economists, historians, sociologists, and legal researchers. The journal emphasizes rigorous empirical and theoretical research that advances understanding of newspapers as institutions, cultural artifacts, and economic enterprises in both national and global contexts. Articles in Newspaper Research Journal cover a wide variety of topics including newspaper management and ownership, media economics and market structures, changes in news production and editorial practices, technological disruption and digital transformation, audience behavior and engagement, historical analysis of press development, legal issues affecting the press, ethics, and the relationship between newspapers and democracy. It also welcomes studies that bridge traditional print journalism with emerging platforms and hybrid media practices. Because of its interdisciplinary nature, the journal attracts readers not only from journalism and media studies but also from business, law, sociology, and public policy. With its quarterly publication schedule, the journal continues to shape scholarly conversation about the evolving role of newspapers in an era of rapid change.
