American Newspaper Publishers Association

The American Newspaper Publishers Association (ANPA) was a professional organization representing newspaper publishers in the United States. Founded in 1887, it aimed to support the interests of newspapers through advocacy, education, and networking. The ANPA worked to promote the industry's growth, address challenges like technology changes, and improve journalistic standards. Over time, its functions evolved and merged with other industry groups, eventually leading to the formation of associations like the Newspaper Association of America. Today, its legacy continues in efforts to advance the newspaper industry and adapt to digital media transformations.
