The fireplace blower is taking in air, rather than blowing it out, why?

It is a Washington StoveWorks fireplace insert. As I understand it the company is no longer in business. I set a notecard in front of the blower and it sucked the paper onto it. Is the blower suppose to be blowing hot air out? This one is sucking air in, any idea on why or how to fix it?
