The North Shore Leader is a weekly newspaper that serves the North Shore area of Long Island, New York. As of 2022, The Leader has a circulation of around 20,000 people. The newspaper was founded in 1955 by John W. Knott Jr. and has been published continuously since then. It covers news, sports, and events in the North Shore area and aims to provide a forum for local voices and perspectives. It was acquired by the Lally family in the late 1990s. In late 2022, questions about American politician George Santos' finances emerged in September 2022 in The North Shore Leader with no other news outlet reporting on the story before the election. In the October 20, 2022, edition of the newspaper listing political endorsements, it said, "This newspaper would like to endorse a Republican for US Congress in NY3 (Oyster Bay, N Hempstead, NE Queens). But the GOP nominee – George Santos – is so bizarre, unprincipled and sketchy that we cannot." The paper's publisher himself ran as a Republican for the same seat in previous years, and their coverage was inspired by tips from those active in local business and party politics.
