Jason Pramas is an American photojournalist. He is executive editor and associate publisher[1] of the alternative newsweekly DigBoston, and executive director of the Boston Institute for Nonprofit Journalism (BINJ) that he co-founded with Chris Faraone in 2015.[2]
In 2018, his column Apparent Horizon won first place in the Political Column category (circulation 40,000 & over) of the annual Association of Alternative Newsmedia Awards.[3] Pramas also founded Open Media Boston,[4][5] an online metropolitan newsweekly serving the Boston, MA area, in 2008 and served as its editor/publisher until merging the publication with BINJ.
He was formerly an assistant professor of communications at Lesley University,[6] but has stated that he believes he lost his job[7] in retaliation for helping lead a successful drive to organize Lesley core faculty into a labor union in 2015.[8][9]
