The East Bay Express (founded 1978) is an Oakland-based weekly newspaper serving the East Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area. New Times Media, which owned the paper, merged with the parent company of the Village Voice to form Village Voice Media in October 2005.

On 17 May 2007, Village Voice Media announced the paper was being bought by Express editor Stephen Buel and a group of investors.[2][3]

The paper placed actor Gary Coleman on the ballot for governor in the 2003 California recall election.[4]
