Federalist editor-in-chief; institutional-media critique.

Mollie Hemingway is editor-in-chief of The Federalist (which she helped launch in 2013), a Fox News contributor, and a senior journalism fellow at Hillsdale College. She is a bestselling author whose books include Justice on Trial (2019, on the Kavanaugh confirmation) and Rigged (2021, on media, Big Tech, and the 2020 election).

Her core 'Rigged' thesis, that Zuckerberg's ~$350-400M in CTCL grants let partisans 'seize' election administration, overstates the evidence: the FEC found no reason to believe the grants were an unlawful partisan operation and the aid reached jurisdictions in 48 states, so critics say she frames contested nonpartisan election-support work as intentional rigging.

On the record: no documented legal record found in a primary source.
