}}Joseph Francis Farah (born July 6, 1954) is an American author, journalist and editor-in-chief of the conservative website WorldNetDaily (WND).[1][1][2][3]

Early years

Farah was born in Paterson, New Jersey, on July 6, 1954, to parents of Syrian and Lebanese ancestry.[5] His father was a schoolteacher.[5] He graduated from William Paterson University, in Wayne, New Jersey with a B.A. in Communications.[5] He is married to Elizabeth Farah and is a conservative evangelical Christian.[5]

Career

Farah worked for six years as executive news editor at the Los Angeles Herald Examiner.[9] On July 22, 1990, Farah became editor of the Sacramento Union. The paper had been losing up to $3 million annually, and in early 1990 it was purchased from Richard Mellon Scaife by Daniel Benvenuti Jr. and David Kassis.[10] Farah and the paper's owners envisioned the paper as a conservative alternative to the Sacramento Bee. "We just thought the way to go was to be unabashedly conservative in our approach," explained Farah to the Washington Post. Among other things, Farah convinced Rush Limbaugh to write a daily column, which ran on "Page 1."[9]

In 1991, Farah left the Union and co-founded the Western Journalism Center.[14] He currently writes a weekly print column for the Jerusalem Post which is nationally syndicated through Creators Syndicate.[4]

He launched the online WorldNetDaily in 1997.[16] He has published some controversial material there, such as in 2003 applauding a wife's murder of her husband for alleged infidelity.[5]

Farah is among those who have promulgated conspiracy theories questioning Barack Obama's status as a natural born citizen of the United States and resultant eligibility to serve as U.S. President,[6][7] stating, "It'll plague Obama throughout his presidency. It'll be a nagging issue and a sore on his administration, much like Monica Lewinsky was on Bill Clinton's presidency" and "It's not going to go away, and it will drive a wedge in an already divided public."[20] Despite the release of Obama's notarized birth certificate abstract,[8] Farah demanded that Obama release his "long-form" birth certificate and pledged $15,000 to the hospital where Obama was born upon the release of said document.[22] When Obama finally released the long-form birth certificate, he called it "fraudulent," and disowned the pledge.[9]
