Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

HoloNet News and Entertainment (HNE) was a major news channel during the time of the Clone Wars and the Galactic Alliance.

During the final years of the Galactic Republic, it merged with HoloNet News Service. It did a daily, Galaxy-wide morning news bulletin, highlighting the major events of the previous day. It also featured a comedy circuit. They did a special radio feature for the clones during the Clone Wars. Just before Order 66 was executed, one of their reporters was found dead in his home after writing a piece revealing the Supreme Chancellor Palpatine's faulty accounting.

The company survived well into the New Republic era, continuing to grow even after the Yuuzhan Vong War.
