Fifty-one years ago the St. Louis Journalism Review was born out of a need to critically examine news coverage amidst protests and civil unrest. It continues today as Gateway Journalism Review, with a quarterly magazine, weekly digital newsletter and news website.
In 2022, amidst new crises, including a pandemic, civil unrest and economic crisis, Gateway Journalism Review/St. Louis Journalism Review continues to critically examine journalism, all the while defending the First Amendment.
