On November 1, the Day of Bulgarian Journalism is traditionally marked. It has been celebrated since 1907 on the day of the church holiday of Sts. Cosmas and Damyan, patron saints of the first journalistic association in Bulgaria - the Society of Sofia Journalists. The first chairman of the association, founded in 1905, was Bulgarian journalist and publicist Joseph Herbst, who bequeathed to generations the phrase: "Never aiming to please, never doing it out of spite."

Today the professional, social and union rights of journalists in this country are a priority in the work of the Union of Bulgarian Journalists, in which college members join on a voluntary basis.
