Founded in 1970 by former Congressman Gary Ackerman, the Queens Tribune has consistently been a pioneer for weekly community journalism in the Borough for more than 40 years.

The Tribune reaches more than 200,000 readers throughout Queens each week, providing extensive coverage of local news, with a strong focus on coverage of politics, business, education and healthcare. The Queens Tribune has become a reliable resource for all through its annual publication of special sections, including the Queens Blue Book – The Official Guide to Queens – along with annual healthcare and business directories. The paper’s rich tradition of insightful and strident editorials, groundbreaking investigative features and informative special sections has frequently been honored with statewide journalism awards, and it is a tradition that continues with each issue.
