The Hunts Point Express is an online news site that covers the Hunts Point and Longwood neighborhoods of the Bronx in New York City. Founded in the spring of 2006 as a monthly newspaper, it covers development, schools, crime, the arts, politics and local community institutions and the people who participate in them.[1] Formerly staffed by students at Hunter College of the City University of New York, its reporters now are students at CUNY’s Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism. The newspaper's partner publication is the Mott Haven Herald, which is also staffed by Newmark students.[2] Both papers were founded by Bernard L. Stein, the Pulitzer-prize-winning former editor of The Riverdale Press when he was a professor of journalism at Hunter and the journalism school.[3][4]

Stein was succeeded as editor of both The Express and the Herald by Joe Hirsch, a Newmark School alumus who had served as associate editor.[5]
