Donna, I don’t understand your message.
Evans did seminal research and obtained primary source documents which nobody else had seen up to that time.
For that alone, his work deserves serious consideration.
As Dr. John E. Haynes noted in his review article regarding Evans book (comparing it to the previous work by Arthur Herman):
“Evans does an excellent job of correcting excesses in the historical record — the unthinking, near-hysterical, and far too common demonization of McCarthy. Indeed, Evans’s book is more detailed, and he conducted more original and diligent research into primary documentation than did Herman in his account of ‘America’s most hated senator.’ “
But as Dr. Haynes also points out, McCarthy was gravely mistaken about many matters.

The article makes claims that ignore Coulter. That’s clear.
Coulter ...shattered half a century of lies about Joseph McCarthy and “McCarthyism”... first.
