Theolivegrovenews.com is a website that allows you to access all our local stories from the print newspaper and much more if you are a paying subscriber.
How do I contact editors, writers, or columnists?
Phone: (714) 450-5582
Email: newsroom@theolivegrovenews.com
Mail: The Olive Grove News, 15068 Rosecrans Avenue #126, La Mirada CA 90638
Our goal is to respond to everyone who contacts the newspaper. Please allow some time for response because of the volume of feedback, questions, and story proposals our writers and editors receive and because of their schedules and news coverage demands.
Where are your business hours?
The Olive Grove office is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
How do I submit a press release?
Press releases should be directed to editor@theolivegrovenews.com. Responses cannot be made to press releases because of the large number that arrive daily in the newsroom. Press releases are used based on newsworthiness and not all can be published or used for an article.
How do I notify you of corrections?
The Olive Grove corrects all errors of substance and clarifies information in news stories that was misleading or unbalanced. Corrections or clarifications typically appear on the front page of the section in which the error appeared, and they should always appear in the online version of the content.
Where can I find previously-published articles?
Theolivegrovenews.com website contains archive articles by The Olive Grove News staff and locally-written opinion columns. Searching is free. You can also find copies of every edition of The Olive Grove at the La Mirada Library.
I saw an article in the paper/online but I can’t find it online/in the paper. Where is it?
Most The Olive Grove articles and photographs appearing in the newspaper are archived online, but not all of them. There also are several features such as blogs, entertainment listings, and social media coverage that only appear in the online edition.
