Newswise and Staff Journalists

Of the 4,068 Newswise subscribing journalists, 75% (3,036) are on staff at a media outlet. Seventy-three percent of these are US-based and 27% are international. As Newswise is constantly expanding to include more journalists and publications, these numbers change daily. On average, we add 60 new press passes each month.

The media outlets for which these "staff" journalists write can be divided into the following categories:
