NUJ Ethics Survey

We are trying to identify the types of pressures NUJ members face in their working lives from pressures to write favourably through freebies or actions designed to prevent reporting such as being denied access to people, events or places or being denied access to information.

If you have been denied access to a public meeting for instance, or have been offered a free holiday on the expectation of a glowing review, we want to know. Please fill in this quick and simple questionnaire.
