Benson lived much of his early life overseas before settling down in Ridgewood, New Jersey.

Benson graduated from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University in 2007. While at Northwestern, he worked for the campus radio station, WNUR, broadcasting sporting events and hosting a political talk show. Benson also reported for an NPR station in South Florida, broadcasted summer baseball games in the Cape Cod Baseball League [ [http://www.capecodbaseball.org/News/news2005/CCChronicle/CCChronicle_30Jun2005.htm Cape Cod Times Sports ] ] , and interned at the White House.

In April 2008, Benson discovered video [ [http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives2/2008/04/020358.php Power Line: "The Friends of Obama"] ] from a 2007 reunion of the Weathermen, a radical left wing group from the 1960s and 70s. The footage included quotes from two members, Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, defending their unlawful actions. Since Ayers and Dorhn are associates of Barack Obama, the clips made national news, from the "Boston Globe" [ [http://www.boston.com/bostonglobe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2008/04/27/obamas_mainstream_friends/ "Boston Globe": Obama's "mainstream" friends"] ] to Fox News.
