He did not even try.There was no case.
Reagan made a secret deal with the Iranians to not release the hostages until Carter left office.
The hostages were taken because Kissinger urged Carter to keep the Tehran Embassy fully staffed.Kissinger was acting in harmony with Exxon. Carter should have withdrawn the hostages. Because of the hostage crisis,Iranian oil was removed from the supply chain. Exxon made billions.
What is a "coastal" magazine? I agree that you will find more objective reporting in The Nation, the New Yorker and In These Times than in the American Review or the American Spectator. I think they are headquartered on the coast as well.
I use the word "coastal" to describe the places where most of the editing and authorship of fairly mainstream magazines are published from. I read Wired too, so that magazine I consider more Western coastal in the form of Silicon Valley. They aren't outright leftest propaganda but they also don't necessarily reflect the viewpoints of more heartland points of view. You can't really get that except from more faith oriented news sources and most of the right wing posters on this board would probably outright reject most of the viewpoints expressed in the magazines I read.
Nothing is easier than defending the status quo.
