Thank you. I had not heard/read that before from FDRs financial advisors. Gives me something to look for against FDRs liberal qhitewashing tales.

Yes, decades before Twitter FDR was being praised by his media for his use of the latest in “social media” (the new radio) to talk directly to the public in his frequent Fireside Chats.

Allow me to direct you to a fantastic biography of the Great Depression: The Forgotten Man, by Amity Shlaes.
