Jonah Goldberg, Steve Hayes launch conservative media company The Dispatch

Former "National Review" columnist Jonah Goldberg and Steve Hayes of the now-defunct Weekly Standard have launched a conservative media company called The Dispatch.

“We aim to make The Dispatch a place that thoughtful readers can come for conservative, fact-based news and commentary that doesn’t come either through the filter of the mainstream media or the increasingly boosterish media on the right. Importantly, we want to build a genuine community, with regular engagement between those of us who work here and the readers and listeners who will pay our salaries," Goldberg and Hayes write on the company's website.

Visitors of the site can choose to read content for free or purchase a "Founders Membership" for $1,500, which provides a lifetime membership and other perks including "priority access to meet-ups, events, conference call with top staffers" and "access to robust members-only discussion room."

"Everything will remain free for the next few months. Early next year, we’ll begin charging $10 a month or $100 a year for membership," Hayes indicates in an email to new subscribers.

The publication's newsletter will debut on Wednesday, Axios first reported on Tuesday.

National Review's David French will also be joining The Dispatch as senior editor, the news outlet added.

A 'conservative media company' or a 'nevertrumper' media company like https://thebulwark.com/?

David French (National Review) has not been Trump-friendly.

They’d rather have the Democrats win than conservatives.

“””Former “National Review” columnist Jonah Goldberg and Steve Hayes of the now-defunct Weekly Standard have launched a conservative media company called The Dispatch.”””


Never Trumpers Jonah Goldberg and Steve Hayes are most likely feeling the financial hurt for opining against MAGA.

It's not a question of whether this vanity project of nevertrumpers will flop, it's how hard it will flop.

“Everything will remain free for the next few months. Early next year, we’ll begin charging $10 a month or $100 a year for membership,” Hayes indicates in an email to new subscribers.”

Then they do not truly care about this country or conservatism. They will let the all mighty dollar influence the content just like all the others.

Goldberg tries to invent $$$ now that the DNC isn’t throwing at him under the table to get him to oppose Trump.
It won’t work.
Retire and give it up

“....or the increasingly boosterish media on the right”. I can’t see many people going for their democRAT lite, never Trumper slop. And the Rats already have their own biased news sites. So in what way will this be more alluring than the publication they recently crash landed? This won’t fly either.
