I have some questions and I think they’re good ones:
Why was this information buried all these years?
Who would gain and — more importantly — who would lose if these recordings were disclosed sooner?
—Who would gain and — more importantly — who would lose if these recordings were disclosed sooner?—
Leftist apologists for totalitarian regimes would have lost for sure.
The same thing happened with the decrypted Venona Cables, which unmasked Alger Hiss and his ilk as CCCP spies or sympathizers (and were buried by the Treason Media at the time they were disclosed (early 1990s)). I usually paid attention to major news ervents but never heard of “Venona” till I read Ann Coulter’s “Treason”.
