Thorough, incisive and fascinating, this is the best account we have of the strange relationship between Joe McCarthy and the American press. --Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.


Thorough, incisive and fascinating, this is the best account we have of the strange relationship between Joe McCarthy and the American press. Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.


No one who cares about liberty will read Mr. Bayley's masterful study without a shudder about the journalistic cop-outs that contributed to making the nightmare called McCarthyism. This book reminds us that it could happen here, but perhaps will make it harder to happen next time. Daniel Schorr Thorough, incisive and fascinating, this is the best account we have of the strange relationship between Joe McCarthy and the American press. Arthur Schlesinger, Jr.
