by Melvin Lasky
Co-editor of Encounter
A recent book about Senator McCarthy by Richard Rovere has provoked discussion on how far the American press bears responsibility for the Senator's rise and fall. Alelvin Lasky finds the case against American newspapers not proven but he has doubts about some of the ways in which they fulfil their place in a democratic society.
