Blazar observations above 100 GeV with VERITAS
  The VERITAS array of 12-m atmospheric-Cherenkov telescopes in southern Arizona is one of the world's most-sensitive detectors of very-high-energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma rays. More than 50 extragalactic sources are known to emit VHE photons; these include blazars, radio galaxies, and starburst galaxies. Blazar observations are one of the VERITAS Collaboration's Key Science Projects. More than 400 hours per year are devoted to this program and ~100 blazars have already been observed with the array, in most cases with the deepest ever VHE exposure. These observations have resulted in 21 detections, including 10 VHE discoveries, all of them with supporting multiwavelength observations. Recent highlights from VERITAS extragalactic observation program and the collaboration's long-term blazar observation strategy are presented.
