    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY "Croak" Carter: Radio's Voice of Doom HEN Westbrook Pegler, who hated almost everybody, died, an associate might have said in all candor: "He was the Wclosest thing newspaper journalism ever had to a Boake Carter." Carter was an extraordinarily powerful and effective critic of the New Deal before Pearl Harbor, especially between 1935 and 1938, when there were few commercially-sponsored news commen- tators on the air. Administration leaders frequently mentioned their extreme dislike of him. Carter's greatest national prominence, or notoriety, occurred during 1937 and the early part of the following year. After August, 1938, he was banned from the major networks. At the time, some of his millions of nightly listeners were certain that Franklin D. Roosevelt had been responsible. Although the news analyst spoke over the Mutual Broadcasting System from Septem- ber, 1939, on, he never regained his popularity and died in 1944, already largely forgotten. Today, another look is in order. Histor- ians realize the importance of radio in understanding American society before 1941. For that reason, the career of such a notorious radio personality has particular interest. Carter relished controversy. "Meat is in argument," he once said. "If I can provide an argument, so much the better."1 The commen- 1 Newsweek, July 18,1936, 26. 287 288 DAVID H.

Ickes claimed that the newscaster could "enter any intellectual goldfish-swallowing contest and the result would be as impressive as his journalistic career."2 A distinguished journalist, making no attempt to disguise his loath- ing, termed the broadcaster a "mercenary poseur."3 Early in his career, Carter claimed to have studied the techniques of Detroit's demagogic radio priest, Father Coughlin.4 If so, he was an apt pupil.

  • Sycamore Shoals Celebration by Judge Ed Butler

Frederick Hambright, leader of the Lincoln Co., N.C. militia at Cowpens, SC, along with other groups from Virginia, Georgia, Virginia and South Carolina. From the 1,100 some men, the leaders selected just over 900 men with the best horses for the Oct. 7, 1780 attack of Ferguson, who was dug in atop Kings Mountain. They rode for 36 straight hours, then entered the battle immediately upon their arrival at Kings Mountain. Their victory was the turning point in the American Revolutionary War. We were here to commemorate these brave Over The Mountain Men. Ronnie Lail was Chairman. In addition to the 20 some color guardsmen, most of whom were dressed as backwoodsmen, there was a 10 man fife and drum corps. There were about 60 participants in the grand stands. It was a bright sunny day. After the formalities were over, I was introduced. Before I gave my remarks, I presented a Meritorious Service Medal to to John Echerd. My remarks were as follows: It is a pleasure to return to my original home state. Just a few miles from here on the banks of the Watauga River is the town of Butler. Although my direct Butler ancestors migrated directly from Montgomery Co., NC, my collateral ancestors settled this nearby community. To talk about the events we commemorate today, we must examine what had been going on. The patriots suffered a huge defeat at Charleston, only to be followed by another English victory at Camden.

HEALTHCARE SECTOR STOCK RETURNS AND THE ELECTION OF DONALD J. TRUMP By Cordell L. Hull A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Of MASTER OF SCIENCE In Financial Economics ABSTRACT The 2016 US Presidential Election was hallmarked by significant policy differences between the Democratic and Republican parties. Healthcare reform was one of the most significant and highly debated issues between the candidates; Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) and Donald J. Trump (R-NY). The Republican platform of repeal and replace was in direct opposition to the expansionary viewpoints of the Democratic Party which was to promote increased regulations on the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries. The media narrative in the months preceding the election assumed a Democratic victory as a sure thing. The New York Times gave Hillary Clinton a 98.5% chance of victory at the beginning of election night, making the landslide victory of Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton one of the greatest political upsets of the modern political era.
