ABOUT SAMARITAN MAG Sick of tabloid news? SAMARITAN doesn't care who is dating whom, who wore sweat pants to the grocery store, and who is getting divorced. Samaritan is for people sick of tabloid news and invasive, mean or silly stories. It is the anti-tabloid. SAMARITAN is an online magazine that covers the good deeds and efforts of samaritans — individuals, charities, small businesses and corporations — anyone trying to make a difference in the world. It is not a “good news” site. In fact, every topic is pretty shitty — cancer, MS, ALS, poverty, animal rescue etc… — but they’re about good people trying to change bad things. That is the way we describe it. If you’ve noticed that the site is music-heavy, that’s because its founder, Karen Bliss, is an award-winning music journalist who has interviewed everyone from Eminem and Kurt Cobain to Beyoncé and Metallica. Through her reputation and stable of professional journalists, Samaritan has interviewed Rush, Shania Twain, Metallica, Nelly Furtado, Avril Lavigne, Yoko Ono, the late Robbie Robertson, Tegan and Sara, Samuel L. Jackson, Drake, Neil Young, Billy Talent, Ron Howard, The Who's Pete Townshend, Jack Johnson, Mötley Crüe, Slash, Ed Sheeran, among many others. Samaritan has high journalistic standards; the stories are original — interviews done with our writers for Samaritan — not taken from other news sites, as is often the case in today's media world (ie. told such and such outlet). Even short news pieces are written from the original press release or subject’s social media or web site. Why is this important? Because Samaritan articles are fact-checked and comprised of information directly from the source. Please subscribe to our newsletter and spread the word.
