PositiveAirmailKagan is a fine writer and an indefatigable researcher. His book is the product of a monumental amount of work ... Two words, however, do not appear: \'Iraq\' and \'Ukraine\' ... A malevolent xenophobia lurks in the DNA of the G.O.P. ... It will emerge when someone in Congress... utters the cry \'What’s in it for us?\' The answer, in riveting detail, is in Kagan’s book. I recommend it.
Kathryn S. Olmsted
PositiveAir MailOlmsted has herself a clever book title, but it’s a bit of a stretch. The various media barons really had little to do with one another. A greater handicap is her intellectual integrity: she has to acknowledge that her \'axis\' members, while hugely mighty and important, nevertheless kept failing in their main objective—defeating Roosevelt ... As Olmsted makes clear, the president was dealing with a right-wing press that, absent reliable polling, was thought to reflect its readership.
