Biography
Farah made a name for himself in 1990 when he became editor of the
Sacramento Union was a newspaper [i] founded in 1851 in Sacramento, California [i]. ...
newspaper under the ownership of Daniel Benvenuti Jr. and David Kassis when the three turned the paper in a more conservative direction. Benvenuti and Kassis bought the newspaper from billionaire Richard Mellon Scaife who was also a conservative and would eventually fund the Arkansas Project to bring down
Bill Clinton. After 15 months as editor of the Union, Farah stepped down, in part from the 30% decline of the paper's circulation. He is also the founder of ShopNetDaily where books on
Christianity, politics and other world issues are sold.

Bias
Farah has claimed "We are not conservative. We are the largest independent news site on the Net". Yet, his articles lean toward the exciting and sensationalist, and commonly criticize Democrats, gays, Arab Islamists, and liberals on many issues.
In his work he proclaims, "The choice is simple: The world of standards and morality, of marriage, order, the rule of law, and accountability to God? Or the world of anything-goes, aberrant sexual behavior, doing-your-own-thing lifestyles, and moral codes that change with the speed of the latest public-opinion poll?" Also tied to WND is Farah's , an online "intelligence newsletter" which focuses on world events viewed through a conservative perspective. Farah is also known for his strong support for
Israel and is possibly one of the most notable and outspoken pro-Israeli Arab writers. He has criticized the Israeli government for negotiating too much with the Palestinnians and abandoning lands which he believes were given to the Jewish people by God.
