Human Events was founded in 1944 by Felix Morley, Frank Hanighen, and Henry Regnery. The idea for Human Events came from their desire to create a platform for conservative thought and analysis during a time when they felt such perspectives were underrepresented in mainstream media. Originally launched as a newsletter, Human Events evolved into a prominent conservative publication over the decades. In 2019, the publication was acquired by Raheem Kassam and Will Chamberlain, who relaunched it as a digital media platform with a focus on conservative news and commentary. Based in Washington, D.C., Human Events primarily covers political news, current events, and cultural issues from a conservative perspective. The website features articles, opinion pieces, and analysis on topics such as domestic and foreign policy, economics, social issues, and technology. While the main focus is on U.S. politics, Human Events also covers international news and events that are relevant to its audience. The publication aims to provide in-depth coverage and commentary on issues that are of particular interest to conservative readers. One interesting fact: A unique aspect of Human Events is its historical significance in conservative politics. The publication was famously known as Ronald Reagan's favorite newspaper during his presidency. Reagan was a regular reader of Human Events and often cited it as a source of information and inspiration for his political ideas and policies. This connection to one of the most influential conservative presidents in U.S. history has contributed to Human Events' enduring reputation within conservative circles.
Human Events is ranked N/A among other media sources and has an average of 592,118 monthly visits according to Similar Web.
