Stephen Hayes Dispatches Me

Stephen Hayes is co-founder and CEO of The Dispatch, which continues to grow into an excellent media and journalism company that’s doing good work with a right-of-center political orientation.

Steve is a grounded, steady, humble guy. I always enjoy talking with him and this was no different. Here’s how he described our conversation:

We discuss painful periods of intense devotion to a kind of non-denominational Christianity where shame — including public self-criticism — was the point. We explore his decision to pursue a life in journalism, his years working with Tucker Carlson at the Daily Caller, the blind spots of the mainstream media, and the enthusiastic embrace of most evangelicals for Donald Trump, and its implications for our politics, our faith and our world.”
