The Australian Journalists Association (AJA) was an Australian trade union for journalists from 1910–1992.[1][2]
In 1913 the Australian Journalists' Association merged with the Australian Writers' and Artists' Union.[3] This union had been formed in 1910,[4][5] launched on 9 September of that year in the Sydney Trades Hall by Harold Mercer[6] (1882–1952), also known as Harold St Aubyn, a prolific writer who was involved in the creation of 28 new unions in total.[7]
On 18 May 1992 it amalgamated with Actors' Equity and the Australian Theatrical and Amusement Employees' Association to create the Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance.[8] The AJA section is now known as MEAA Media.[9]
