Jonah Goldberg joins CNN
Dominick Mastrangelo - 1h ago

Jonah Goldberg, a longtime conservative political journalist and cable news pundit, is joining CNN, the network confirmed on Monday.

Goldberg has been hired by CNN to serve as a political commentator and will be based in Washington, D.C. Goldberg is the co-founder and editor-in-chief of conservative online political commentary website The Dispatch and has authored three New York Times best-selling books.

Goldberg and fellow conservative scribe Stephen Hayes late last year announced they were leaving Fox News, where they had both been contributors for years, saying they had grown increasingly uncomfortable with the tone and content of much of Fox News's opinion content and arguing the publication of prime-time host Tucker Carlson's documentary series examining the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol was a breaking point.

"Indeed, the news side of Fox routinely does what it is supposed to do: It reports the truth," the pair wrote in a blog post about their decision. "But the voices of the responsible are being drowned out by the irresponsible."

Fox News said at the time of Goldberg's and Hayes's departure that the network did not plan to renew their contracts as contributors.

When you are so far Left that Trotsky's a conservative, Jonah Goldberg looks like a conservative.

For every sadist, there is a masochist who cannot suffer a single second longer to face the punishment they think they deserve.

For each man secretly filled with self-doubt and self-loathing, there is somewhere (and always, it seems) a trap set by confidence artists eagerly waiting to ensnare and devour them whole.

In such cases, the victim willingly accepts even the most awful abuse, while still believing themselves to be understood, appreciated, heard and fulfilled.

And from the perspective of the abusers, they most certainly are.

Jonah Goldberg wrote a book called "Liberal Fascism".

I would appreciate any alternative explanation of why he has now chosen to join those he once scorned.

Wow, it's like reality in reverse, all of the rats are jumping onto the sinking ship!

This tells me all I really need to know about Jonah Goldberg.

[DCPatriot]

Yeah! That's a real hoot!

Remember meeting his mother Lucianne Goldberg on the Mall in Washington, D.C.,
during the initial March for 'Something' for FreeRepublic.

But I forget what drove her and JR apart.   Had to have been a political endorsement for POTUS.  LOL!
