Thanks to everyone who joined us at Chloe’s at Golden Road for the 2026 SPJ/LA Mega Mixer. It was wonderful to see you all!

We’re seeking nominations for the 50th annual SPJ/LA Distinguished Journalist Awards. 

Embrace unconventional allies. Mount an all-fronts attack on harmful policies– from local to regional to national. Collaborate in and out of traditional channels. Flood the zone with journalism advocacy.

These are just a few of the tactics that surfaced at the Coming Together, Fighting Back: Press Freedom Summit, organized by the SPJ Los Angeles chapter on March 14 with the support of a grant from the SPJ Foundation.
