DCNF President bringing American journalism back to its constitutional roots and away from the biased censorship behemoth it has become.
Independent Women’s Forum is pleased to announce that Adele Malpass, President of the Daily Caller News Foundation, former IWF board member, and onetime chairman of the Manhattan Republican Party, is the latest entry in our popular series of Champion Women profiles.
We can’t imagine anybody more suited to helm the revival of American journalism. At age 11, Adele, daughter of a newspaper family, had a neighborhood paper route after school and by her teens, she was reporting on zoning board meetings. She absorbed the ideas and ideals that undergird American journalism.
Adele joined the Daily Caller News Foundation as president in March 2022. The DCNF is a nonprofit with two distinct missions: to train the next generation of conservative journalists and to produce ground-breaking original reporting. The DCNF does this by running a two-year program to train journalists starting out in their careers.
“The media is at a turning point,” Adele says. “What’s happened is polarization and an unholy alliance between big tech, the Democratic Party, media, and, as we now know, the government. Those four together have aligned in a way that we’ve never seen before in our history.” As the DCNF’s own reporting has found, millions of dollars are being pumped into a Censorship Industrial Complex to block conservative viewpoints from being aired.
Adele also gained in-depth knowledge of government and finance when she joined the Senate Budget Committee staff as an analyst handling banking and learning the budget and appropriations process. While watching the national debt grow by the hour, she met a former Budget Committee staffer at Senator Pete Dominici’s holiday party, David Malpass, then at the State Department. He is a former head of the World Bank.
What does she plan to deliver as DCNF president? Nothing short of bringing American journalism back to its constitutional roots and away from the biased censorship behemoth it has become. Back to the kind of press environment she was literally born into, where the First Amendment, truth, and holding the power to account were the north stars.
