Scoop is a quarterly magazine published in Perth, Western Australia for current members of the Australian Journalists Association. It is the most recent journal/annual that the long lasting branch of the Western Australian "District" or "Branch" has produced.
It is currently published by the Australian Journalists Association section in Western Australia of the Media, Entertainment and Arts Alliance union.
Earlier publications
It was preceded by "The Midnight bawl" in the 1940s and 1950s - "Scribe" was around in the 1970s - with the "Annuals" from the 1960's through to its inception in the 1980's. The earlier volumes of Scoop did reflect back into earlier eras of the AJA WA ["Western Australian District of the Australian Journalists' Assoc - list of branch presidents, secretaries and gold honour badge holders, 1911-1987'Scoop / Australian Journalists Association, Sept. 1987, p.37 ]

Journalists form a large portion of the AJA section's membership, Scoop also reports on issues that affect sub-editors, photographers, freelance journalists, broadcasters, graphic designers, TV camerapersons, public relations workers and writers.
Scoop currently runs 'It Says Here', the work of cartoonist Shaun Salmon. Irregular features include "Lord Copper", who writes about journalism style, "Papped", a showcase of a photographer member's work, and Bloopers, errors from the media.
