Humanist Network News

Humanist Network News, or HNN, is a weekly Internet magazine produced by the American Humanist Association (AHA). A typical edition of HNN contains news, opinion, lifestyle pieces, cartoons and humor...just like a regular newspaper except each piece addresses the nonreligious philosophy of humanism. HNN articles are written by the staff of the AHA and a variety of guest writers. HNN is published Wednesdays at HumanistNetworkNews.org.

Once a month, the AHA releases a one-hour Internet radio talk show, called an audio podcast . During that week, the HNN ezine contains a description of the podcast (guests, segments etc) with links to listen to and download the audio file (.mp3).
