"If there was a Top 10 list of young Loudoun County people to watch, he'd be on it," a ''Washington Post'' reporter wrote in a Loudoun County regional section of the paper. "Domenech is a sharp writer with an obvious command of his national politics beat — especially considering that this is the first year he is eligible to vote".〔()"An Early Eye for Political Punditry: Teenager's Pointed Views Play in Conservative Circles" feature article (no byline shown on Web page), ''The Washington Post, Loudoun County Extra (local supplement section), May 7, 2000, first three paragraphs appear on "Free article preview" page at ''Washington Post'' Web site, accessed August 30, 2007.〕 He attended the College of William and Mary between 1999 and 2002.

He has also worked as contributing editor for National Review Online; two years as the chief speechwriter for Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX); and an editor at Regnery Publishing, where he worked on books by Michelle Malkin, Ramesh Ponnuru, and Hugh Hewitt.〔(Red America blog bio on Domenech ) The bio states "After 9/11, he abandoned the journalism field for a taxpayer-funded life and was sworn in as the youngest political appointee of President George W. Bush".〕 In March, 2006, Domenech was named as a blogger for the Washington Post, where he would write from the conservative point of view. But only three days after his appointment, on March 21, 2006, Domenech resigned his position, when evidence surfaced that he had earlier plagiarized work that had originally appeared in the New Yorker, the Washington Post, the National Review, and other publications. The Post said it did not know about his plagiarism when the newspaper hired him. Jim Brady, the-then executive editor of Washingtonpost.com, said he would have fired Domenech had he not first offered to quit, because the allegations of plagiarism made it necessary to "sever the relationship." 〔(New York Times online ), ''Washington Post Blogger Quits After Plagiarism Accusations'', Julie Bosman, March 25, 2006. The Times article quotes O'Rourke as saying, "I wouldn't want to swear in a court of law that I never met the guy," adding "but I didn't give him permission to use my words under his byline, no".〕 During the 2008 election, Domenech wrote numerous columns for Human Events.com〔(Ben Domenech archive on Human Events )〕 and for ''The Washington Times''.〔("Sacrificing For Freedom" ''The Washington Times'' )〕〔("Conservative Seeds of Destruction" ''The Washington Times'' )〕〔("Conservatives to Obamacons" ''The Washington Times'' )〕〔("Evolving Standards" ''The Washington Times'' )〕 During the 2012 election, Domenech commented extensively on social and economic issues related to Occupy Wallstreet for the Heritage Foundation.
