...recovering from a mild stroke in 1982 and did not actually recall his letter to Jenkins. Meanwhile, investigations of Wedtech's ties to influential politicians are under way in New York City and Baltimore; a federal grand jury in New York has called Nofziger to testify. Like Michael Deaver, a fellow Reagan intimate and lobbyist who is already under investigation by a special counsel, Nofziger may have stumbled while walking too fine a line between serving the public and seeking private gain...

...from around the world to the White House and signed them on to her crusade. This from "Queen Nancy," this from the darling of the couturiers? Whispers in Washington still have it that the drug issue was forced on her by the political handlers. In fact, advisers like Mike Deaver and Sheila Tate argued against it. Too negative, they said.

...White House team in charge of image making, started under Michael Deaver, is almost too skillful at exploiting the media in order to make policy points. Deaver's successor, William Henkel, orchestrates presidential photo opportunities in which the President acts out little dramas on location, playlets of policy. In March, for example, Reagan "dropped by" the State Department to view a collection of Soviet and other East bloc weapons captured from the Sandinistas in Nicaragua. The point was made. Reagan overrides the print press and captures the electronic image-making tools. The image, without the mediation of language, feeds directly...
