Currently, he writes a weekly column for the Los Angeles Times, where he explores the intersections of politics and culture.

In October two thousand nineteen, Goldberg took on the role of founding editor for The Dispatch, an online opinion and news publication. His literary contributions include several bestselling books, such as Liberal Fascism, which topped the New York Times bestseller list in January two thousand eight, The Tyranny of Cliches: How Liberals Cheat in the War of Ideas released in two thousand twelve, and Suicide of the West, published in April two thousand eighteen, which also reached the New York Times bestseller list, peaking at number five the following month.

Goldberg has made numerous appearances on major news networks, including CNN and MSNBC, and has been featured on programs like Good Morning America, Nightline, and The Daily Show.

In November two thousand twenty-one, Goldberg, alongside his colleague Steve Hayes, resigned from Fox News in protest against Tucker Carlson's documentary, Patriot Purge. He characterized the documentary as a troubling mix of conspiracy theories, factual inaccuracies, and misleading imagery, reflecting his commitment to journalistic integrity and accountability.
