NewsBlaze is now an American company, and of course we are still news for Americans.
At NewsBlaze we strive to provide useful news and information, and the editors work hard to maintain high editorial standards. We proofread and edit every story for spelling, grammar, format and meaning.
If you see a problem, we’d love to hear about it, so we can make corrections. Send us an email or call us on the phone. If you phone, please check the difference between our timezones, because we might be sleeping when you’re awake.
You can also connect with us on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and a few other social media sites.
While head office is Utah, most of our news is meant for U.S. readers, just as it was when we lived in Australia.

Based on the true story of Rita Atria, a rural Italian teenager who blew the whistle on dangerous mafia mobsters terrorizing her town, Marco Amenta's The Sicilian Girl (La Siciliana Ribelle) is a partly fictionalized tragic tale of extraordinary co
While geeks have monopolized movies for some time now as unlikely wimps turned he-men and superheroes, apparently old geezers would like their turn too, if Daniel Barber's senior slasher spree Harry Brown is any indication.
While the Middle East certainly has no monopoly when it comes to repression and violence against women - four women a day are murdered by men in the United States - the difference is that it's legally condoned there, or at least tolerated.
Some years ago, I wrote movie reviews for an up and coming website on the raunchy side. Why they would want feminist leaning analysis surrounded by surgically enhanced sex objects is anybody's guess, maybe for laughs or a pretense of critical balan
A French adaptation import in which more than a little may have been lost in translation, Dinner For Schmucks is dubiously distinguished likewise by bad timing.
