In October 1922, ASNE was launched with directors and officers; they hammered out a

in Washington the next April. The founders decided that ASNE would be an organization of individual editors of big-city papers — limiting membership to editors of newspapers in cities of 100,000 or more. Since then, rules have been loosened extensively.

. Over the years, every current U.S. president spoke at the organization's convention and it was considered a premier venue for politicians to appear. Notable examples are President Coolidge's Press Under a Free Government speech and President Eisenhower's Chance for Peace speech.

Activities

ASNE had several initiatives carried out by its committees. The Diversity Committee was formed to evaluate employee diversity using the Newsroom Employment Census. The

census A census (from Latin ''censere'', 'to assess') is the procedure of systematically acquiring, recording, and calculating population information about the members of a given Statistical population, population, usually displayed in the form of stati ...

queried every daily newspaper and online news site in the United States to determine the number of news staffers as well as their gender and race as part of the organization's yearly census. The survey continues via News Leaders Association. One of the key initiatives led by ASNE is Sunshine Week, an annual event that promotes open government and the importance of transparent journalism. This project, along with others aimed at increasing diversity within newsrooms, underscores ASNE's ongoing commitment to enhancing the quality and inclusiveness of American journalism.

Awards

The ASNE Awards were another key initiative of the organization. They included: * Batten Medal * Osborn Award for Editorial Leadership * Sulzberger Award for Online Storytelling * Howell Award for Nondeadline Writing * Royko Award for Commentary/Column Writing * Distinguished Writing on Diversity Award * Local Accountability Reporting Award * Community Service Photojournalism Award * Breaking News Writing award * Raymond Clapper Memorial Award ( 1951 to 1965)

Projects

ASNE also ran several projects, generally carried out by staff with advice from committees. Projects subject areas have included diversity, credibility and readership. One of the key initiatives led by ASNE is Sunshine Week, an annual event that promotes open government and the importance of transparent journalism. This project, along with others aimed at increasing diversity within newsrooms, underscores ASNE's ongoing commitment to enhancing the quality and inclusiveness of American journalism.
