At a time of growing industry uncertainty and an alarming erosion of civic discourse,
The Dispatch stands out as a platform for thoughtful coverage, respectful dialogue, and a wildly engaged community of paying members. We bring a perspective—we’re conservatives, classical liberals, libertarians—but we’re fiercely independent, standing apart from media outlets increasingly engaged in partisan boosterism. Started in 2019 by Steve Hayes, the Editor-in-Chief of
The Weekly Standard, and Jonah Goldberg, editor at
National Review,
The Dispatch has filled a valuable gap on the center-right in the media ecosystem as captured in articles in
Vanity Fair,
The Atlantic and
other publications.
