Author and journalist Harvey Wasserman examines the "October Surprise," the most monumental story of the past few decades, but one which has been covered  up by most of the Establishment media, particularly the TV networks. The central activity of this effort was the clandestine arrangement of the prime
movers in the Reagan campaign of 1980 with the Iran government to hold the
American hostages in the embassy until after the elections in return for arms
to be shipped to Iran after Reagan assumed office. Wasserman wrote stories
about this in the alternative press as well as some Establishment papers.
