Cambridge Forum is pleased to welcome representatives from The Onion as they examine the place of comedy in our public discourse in an era when Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert are the news sources of choice for a generation of citizens. How does The Onion craft stories that are persuasive enough to be taken seriously by governments around the world?
Cambridge Forum is one of public radio’s longest running public affairs programs. Recorded live every week in Harvard Square, Cambridge Forum focuses on the news behind the news and regularly examines the issues and ideas that shape our lives. Their programs explore topics related to civic democracy, science and technology, history and the global environment, and include as well discussions about computers, education, art, and more.

You will pass the Harvard Coop, Bank of America, and CVS. The First Parish Church is located at the corner of Mass. Ave. and Church St. Please enter through the front door of the church.
