About USA Times

USA Times is an independent digital news and analysis publication covering cinema, box-office economics, technology, business, and public policy. We were built on a simple idea: that the most interesting stories are often hiding inside data nobody has bothered to organize.

Our flagship work is produced by the USA Times Data Desk, which turns primary-source records into original reporting and visual analysis. The Data Desk maintains the proprietary Event-Movie Index, a twenty-year database measuring how completely individual films come to dominate the American box office — and it applies the same data-first approach to delivery-economy policy, government accountability, and consumer markets.

What we cover

Cinema and the business of moviegoing; large-format and premium exhibition; box-office data and industry trends; technology and platform economics; and public-policy reporting drawn from government filings and primary records. When we publish a number, we show where it came from.

Leadership and independence

USA Times is led by Executive Editor Achir Kalra and operated by its editorial team with full editorial independence. Advertising, affiliate, and sponsorship relationships never influence our reporting or the conclusions of our analysis, and any sponsored material is clearly labeled. Our approach to sourcing, corrections, and the use of technology is set out in our Editorial Standards.
