History

Founded in 1926,[3] 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[4] 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.[1]

As of 2011, The Huntington News operates under World Series Way Publishing Company, Inc., a 501(c)3 nonprofit company.[5]

In 2016, the newspaper announced a fundraising campaign to clear a $30,000 debt to Turley Publications, and to place the publication on a firmer financial footing.[6][7] In 2019, the newspaper announced they had cleared their debt to Turley Publications, generated via donations, fundraising, and advertising revenue.[8]
