newsmen
Journalists covering events
Newsmen is the plural of newsman—a man who works as a journalist, reporter, or news broadcaster.
The term was standard when journalism was male-dominated: The newsmen gathered at the press conference.
It now sounds dated, with journalists or reporters preferred for mixed or general reference.
