Diversity and Inclusion in Advertising

For over a century, the nation's most sophisticated readers have trusted The New York Times Company for its integrity and sound judgment. And it is this influence that makes The Times and New York Times Company properties, such as The Boston Globe, the International Herald Tribune and The New York Times Regional Media Group, the most effective vehicles an advertiser can find. Over the years, our advertising and marketing teams have partnered with advertisers to ensure that the changing face of America is represented in our publications, Web sites and sponsored events. For example, The New York Times Sunday Magazine publishes a special diversity and inclusion section each year, addressing the most current diversity and inclusion topics in the marketplace.

Supplier Diversity

The New York Times Company benefits from a diverse vendor base and actively tracks its use of both minority and women owned businesses as part of our Supplier Diversity strategy. We utilize varied sources to identify and validate suppliers prior to their inclusion in our vendor master, allowing for full exposure of qualified MBE/WBE businesses across our many properties.

Community Outreach

Key to our core values is good corporate citizenship. And, as a convener of communities, that means reaching out to different organizations that support our employees, business partners and the public we serve. Among other things:

The New York Times Company Foundation and The Boston Globe Foundation support cultural, educational, community service, journalistic and environmental organizations in New York, Boston and other locations of Company activity. In April 2009 the foundations suspended their grant making and matching gifts programs.

The New York Times Community Affairs Department focuses on programs addressing areas that a news organization can uniquely affect, such as literacy, and issues that are of immediate concern to one or more communities, such as immigrant services in New York.

The New York Times Company is also committed to a number of educational efforts, including use of its newspapers as a learning tool. Both The Times and The Globe are active in supporting the Newspaper in Education (N.I.E.) program, which promotes the use of newspapers in classrooms to complement texts and encourage newspaper reading among young people
