PinkNews is a UK-based online newspaper marketed to the LGBTQ+ community covering both domestic and international news. It was founded by Benjamin Cohen in July 2005, initially released in print, but became an online version six months later.

The paper closely follows political progress on LGBTQ+ rights around the world, and carries interviews with cultural figures and politicians, on topics such as same-sex marriage in the United Kingdom, and has participated in campaigns such as Out4Marriage.
