Clinton–Lewinsky scandal [edit]

Goldberg's mother Lucianne Goldberg was involved in the Clinton–Lewinsky scandal as detailed in The New Yorker.[21] [22] Goldberg has spoken of his female parent and the Lewinsky scandal:

My mother was the 1 who advised Linda Tripp to record her conversations with Monica Lewinsky and to save the clothes. I was privy to some of that stuff, and when the assistants gear up about to destroy Lewinsky, Tripp, and my mom, I defended my mom and by extension Tripp ... I accept nix desire to take those arguments over again. I did my bit in the trenches of Clinton'due south trousers.[23]

These tapes became the focal betoken of the Lewinsky scandal.

Current work [edit]

Writing for National Review and other publications [edit]

Beginning in 1998, Goldberg was an editor and wrote a twice-weekly column at National Review, which is syndicated to numerous papers across the Us, and at Townhall.com. National Review consists of young man contributors such equally Ramesh Ponnuru, Richard Brookhiser, and Kevin D. Williamson.[24]

Goldberg also wrote the "Goldberg File"[25] at National Review, a column that was generally lighter and more than focused on humor and cultural commentary. Goldberg'due south column often made popular-civilisation references to works including Star Trek and Battlestar Galactica, of which he has said he is a fan.[26] [27] Goldberg was also a frequent contributor at the National Review web log The Corner, often authoring posts with lite-hearted, comedic and pop-civilization references.

Goldberg left National Review in May 2019.

Aside from being a member of the The states Today Board of Contributors, he has written for The New Yorker, The Wall Street Journal, Commentary, The Public Interest, The Wilson Quarterly, The Weekly Standard, The New York Mail, and Slate. The Los Angeles Times added Goldberg to its editorial lineup in 2005.

In 2020, Goldberg co-founded The Dispatch, an online news publication aimed at offering political, social and cultural assay from a center-right perspective.[28]

Online media [edit]

Goldberg is the host of The Remnant with Jonah Goldberg,[29] an interview podcast that covers a variety of topics in the spheres of politics, bourgeois theory, and current events. Goldberg is a frequent participant in programs produced by Ricochet,[thirty] including the podcast GLoP Culture which features Goldberg, John Podhoretz, and Ricochet co-founder Rob Long.[31] From 2006 to 2010, he was a frequent participant on Bloggingheads.tv.[32]

Books [edit]

Goldberg's first book, Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, from Mussolini to the Politics of Significant, was published in Jan 2008. It reached No. 1 on the New York Times All-time Seller list of hardcover nonfiction in its 7th calendar week on the list.[33] Some historians have denounced the book every bit beingness "poor scholarship",[34] "propaganda",[35] and not scholarly.[36] Other reviewers described the book equally "provocative"[37] and "a wealth of challenging insights, backed upward by thorough research".[38] The audiobook version of Liberal Fascism was narrated by Johnny Heller. Goldberg followed the book with The Tyranny of Clichés: How Liberals Crook in the War of Ideas in 2012. The paperback edition of Tyranny of Cliches came out on April 30, 2013. Goldberg himself narrated the audiobook version. His virtually recent work, Suicide of the Westward, was released in 2018.

Pulitzer merits controversy [edit]

In May 2012, Goldberg was touted every bit a "two-time Pulitzer prize nominee" in the volume jacket of his second book, The Tyranny of Cliches: How Liberals Cheat in the War of Ideas. NBC News reporter Bill Dedman pointed this out as misleading because Goldberg had in fact only been an entrant in the Pulitzer competition and had never been nominated every bit a finalist, as the moniker "Pulitzer nominee" would seem to suggest. Becoming an aspirant in the Pulitzer contest requires only that either the writer of a written work submit an entry grade along with a small fee or that someone else does so on their behalf. Following Dedman'south reporting, Goldberg and his publishing company best-selling the mistake and subsequently removed the line from the book jacket.[39]

Media appearances and commentary [edit]

Frequent topics [edit]

Some frequent topics of his articles include censorship, meritocracy, liberty, federalism and interpretation of the Constitution. He has attacked the ethics and morals of liberals and Democrats, and his disagreements with libertarians also appear oftentimes in his writings. In the years of the Trump presidency, his writings turned disquisitional of the Trump motility and the moral rot within the Republican Political party.[40] He was a supporter of the Republic of iraq State of war and has advocated American military intervention elsewhere in the globe, suggesting that "Every x years or so, the United states needs to pick up some small crappy footling country and throw information technology against the wall, just to evidence the globe we hateful business."[41] He has dedicated historical colonialism in places such as Africa as more beneficial than it is mostly given credit for; in ane column, he suggested that U.Southward. imperialism on the continent could help solve its persistent problems.[42] When he wrote in October 2006 that invading Republic of iraq was a fault, he called it a "noble" mistake and yet maintained that liberal opponents of the state of war policy wanted America to fail: "In other words, their objection isn't to war per se; information technology'southward to wars that accelerate U.S. interests. ... I must confess, one of the things that made me reluctant to conclude that the Iraq war was a error was my distaste for the shabbiness of the arguments on the antiwar side."[43]

He popularized and expanded on a commentary by the late Fourth dimension writer William Henry III. Henry had written on the subject of multiculturalism and cultural equality, stating that "it is scarcely the same affair to put a homo on the moon as to put a bone in your nose". Goldberg stated that "[one thousand]ulticulturalism—which is just egalitarianism wrapped in rainbow-colored paper—has elevated the notion that all ideas are equal, all systems equivalent, all cultures of comparable worth."[42]

He has criticized the thought of "social justice" as meaning "annihilation its champions desire it to mean" or "'good things' no one needs to argue for and no one cartel be against".[44]

Relations with other writers and public figures [edit]

Goldberg has publicly feuded with people on the political left, like Juan Cole, over U.S. Iraq policy, and Air America Radio commentators such as Janeane Garofalo, who has accused him of being a chickenhawk on the Republic of iraq War. On Feb eight, 2005, Goldberg offered Cole a wager of $one,000 "that Republic of iraq won't accept a civil war, that it will have a viable constitution, and that a bulk of Iraqis and Americans volition, in two years' time, concur that the state of war was worth it".[45] Cole refused to accept and the wager was never made.[46] Goldberg afterward conceded that if Cole had accustomed the bet, Cole would have won.[47]

Goldberg and Peter Beinart of The New Republic hosted a conservative vs. liberal webtv show, What'due south your Problem?, from 2007 to 2010. It originally could be found on National Review Online [48] and later on moved to Bloggingheads.tv.[32]

The news media [edit]

Regarding Play tricks News, Goldberg said, "Wait, I think liberals have reasonable gripes with Pull a fast one on News. It does lean to the right, primarily in its opinion programming only also in its story option (which is fine by me) and elsewhere. But it'southward worth remembering that Fox is less a breastwork of ideological conservatism and more a populist, tabloidy network."[49] During the Trump years and beyond, while Goldberg has defended sure news hosts and shows on Play a trick on News, he has go more than sympathetic towards critiques of Play a trick on News, especially regarding their stance hosts, including Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, and Mark Levin.[50] [51] [28] In November, 2021, he resigned as a Fox contributor in protest of what he called a pattern of incendiary and fabricated claims by the network'due south opinion hosts in support of one-time President Donald Trump.[52]

Goldberg has criticized liberals for disliking Play tricks News, claiming they have no "problem with the editorializing of MSNBC's Keith Olbermann or Chris Matthews, they recollect information technology's but plain wrong for conservatives to play that game".[49] Goldberg has referred to Olbermann as "MSNBC's reply to a question no one asked".[53]

Donald Trump [edit]

During the years of the Trump Presidency, Goldberg remained very disquisitional of conservative media's encompass of President Trump. On Trump's defenders in the media, Goldberg said this:

For most five years now, it has been obvious that Trump was unfit for the job and the arguments marshaled in his defence force were cynical rationalizations that, for some, somewhen mutated into sincerely held delusions. Certain, some deluded themselves from the beginning, simply I've talked to too many Republican politicians and bourgeois media darlings who admitted it in individual.[54]

During the Trump Presidency, Goldberg became increasingly critical of both the Republican Party's embrace of President Trump and their abandonment of pre-Trump principles.[55] [ten]

Resignation from Fox News [edit]

On November 21, 2021, Goldberg and colleague Steve Hayes announced that they were severing their ties to Fox News in protest of its support for Tucker Carlson's Patriot Purge, which they described as "a collection of incoherent conspiracy-mongering, riddled with factual inaccuracies, half-truths, deceptive imagery, and damning omissions."[56]
