History

Founded in 1926,[1] The Northeastern News was Northeastern University's student newspaper. As a recognized student group, The Northeastern News reached a weekly circulation of 10,000. The newspaper had been fiscally self-sufficient for years[2] and in 2008, it was announced that The Northeastern News would go independent and become a registered 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, in the process changing their name to The Huntington News.[3]

In 2016, the newspaper announced a fundraising campaign to clear a $30,000 debt, and to place the publication on a firmer financial footing.[4]
