I am saddened that the Norwood News will cease to play its pivotal role in The Bronx as a vital source of local news and information. Its intrepid reporters and journalists, Síle Moloney and David Greene, will be sorely missed for their thoughtful, thorough and astute coverage.

They covered Norwood and the broader Bronx community with professionalism, fairness, accuracy and genuine compassion. When reporting on my office’s work and community events, they brought stories to life with detailed reporting, and photographs capturing the sorrow of victims, the joy of our 5K runs, and the solidarity of our anti-gun violence marches.

 

Síle Moloney was never afraid to ask pointed questions, while David Greene took the time to verify facts with our public information officers.  Their commitment to responsible journalism helped keep our community informed and our public institutions accountable.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
