American Journalism Review is published by the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland.

AJR’s mission is to promote excellence and inspire innovation in journalism through original reporting, commentary and smart aggregation on the news media.

AJR operates as an integral part of Maryland’s journalism school, where students play a key role in reporting, writing and producing news for the AJR.org digital news service.

AJR converted to an all-digital publication in 2013 after nearly four decades as a print magazine. It started life in October 1977 as the Washington Journalism Review. In 1987, its owners donated the magazine to the University of Maryland’s College of Journalism, where it was renamed the American Journalism Review six years later.

For more about the magazine’s history, read “The Life and Times of AJR.”
