California Newswire® (or “CNW” as we call it around here) is a unique online portal combing a wide variety of original content related to living in the state of California.
This online magazine covers:
- News about companies, products, people, and services in California
- Local, county and state government news from California locales.
- Selected California-based non-profit 501(c)(3) charity news of orgs that are “doing good.”
- Original exclusive articles by California writers covering health and lifestyle, the arts and entertainment, and the wild and the whacky
View our staff page for information about our editorial team. We’re all professional musicians, working journalists, gear heads, and/or creative gurus across multiple disciplines. This is no personal blog or impersonal mega-portal, but — we hope — will become a regular destination for those who live and breathe, and love, life in California!
We are located in Temecula, California, USA as of 2019. California Newswire is part of the Neotrope® News Network. California Newswire™ is a U.S. trademark and service mark of Neotrope – all rights reserved. Our company was established in 1983 in Redondo Beach, Calif., by Christopher Laird Simmons, and was formerly known as Mindset (no relation to “Mindset Interactive,” “Mindset Software,” or any other similarly named company).
