Please read the following to learn how to contact the Chicago Journal.

The Chicago Journal tries to make it as easy as possible for our subscribers and readers to find us on the apps they most enjoy, and we try to be as available as we can on as many platforms that we're able to manage.

We also do our best to give more to our readers and help them understand the original principles of the internet and digital publishing. That's why we run our own Mastodon instance for Chicago Journal subscribers only that can be found at chicago.us.org. Subscribers can sign up for their own chicago.us.org address after purchasing an annual subscription.

Below is the master list of where you can find the Chicago Journal on social media:

Submissions

All pitches should be emailed to submissions@chicagojournal.com and include the word “QUERY” in the subject line. No phone calls.
