she never dwelled on the McCarthy "Red" hearings.

That was a master's degree course on the far Right Wing.

She never touched on Roy Cohn, the link between McCarthy and TSF. Incredibly, Cohn connects the Rosenbergs, McCarthy, Reagan and TSF.

I wonder if Cohn connects to Edward Bernays? He was the father of American advertising. Interestingly, Bernays was the person responsible for getting flouride into American water systems. Bernays had to be a Nazi. He was a vicious enemy of FDR. I'd like Maddow to look at Bernays too.
