re: #157 Randall Gross
Weyrich/Buckley and even to a certain extent Dobson were masters at keeping most of the crazy behind the curtain.
That’s because they didn’t have a persistent, instant 24/7 global media cycle to deal with. Weyrich, Buckley and Dobson could hide the crazy better because they didn’t have the internet to contend with.
I suspect that things would be very different now if we’d had our current technology back then.
