The Norwegian Union of Journalists (Norwegian: Norsk Journalistlag, NJ) is a trade union in Norway. It consists of approximately 8,500 editorial personnel in newspapers, magazines, television and radio, as well as freelancers and students.

A member organization of the Norwegian Press Association, it is not a part of the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions. Instead it negotiates directly with the Norwegian Media Businesses' Association as well as representatives for television and radio channels.

It has a twenty-person strong board of directors, a leader and a secretary general.

The union publishes the magazine Journalisten, and it co-owns the Norwegian Institute of Journalism in Fredrikstad.
