The Huntsville Item is seven-day morning daily newspaper published in Huntsville, Texas, covering Walker County in East Texas. It is owned by Community Newspaper Holdings Inc.

Founded in 1850, The Item claims to be the second oldest continuously published newspaper in Texas. It has been headquartered across from the old Huntsville post office, on the banks of Town Creek, since the late 1960s.[2]

The Item's presses also print two college newspapers, The Battalion of Texas A&M University, and The Houstonian of Sam Houston State University.[2]
