From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Matthew Sheffield is an American journalist and podcaster.[1] He was previously a reporter for The Hill[2] and a columnist for Salon.

His articles have appeared in several ideologically diverse publications including the Washington Post, AlterNet,[3] The American Conservative,[4] and National Review. Sheffield is also a former columnist for The Washington Times.

He has commented extensively about the alt-right, a political movement that grew out of American conservatism and which he sees as supplanting many aspects of conventional conservatism. His articles on the alt-right have been frequently cited, including his research on its origins and relationship to paleo-libertarianism and the religious right.[5][6][7]

Sheffield was formerly affiliated with several conservative groups including the Washington Examiner where he was the first online editor as well as the Media Research Center. He was one of the earliest bloggers and was credited by the Pew Research Center as being instrumental in the online discussion of the CBS and Dan Rather Killian documents controversy in 2004.[8] He co-created NewsBusters, a media criticism website operated by the Media Research Center, and wrote content for it.[9]
