Hell Gate
Online/Digital
Hell Gate is a website owned and run by journalists covering New York City, featuring a mixture of blog posts, features, columns, and investigations. We want the site to be trenchant, playful, outraged, irreverent, and useful to our readers; deeply skeptical of power but stubbornly idealistic. Never a chore to read. There used to be a few publications like this about New York, but now, not so much. Source
