KAL 007 and the Superpowers: An International Argument.
Young, Marilyn J.; Launer, Michael K.
Quarterly Journal of Speech, v74 n3 p271-95 Aug 1988
Examines the Reagan administration's crisis rhetoric after the Soviet Union shot down Korean Air Lines Flight 007 in September 1983. Asserts that errors in argumentation strategy undermined the American position, raising doubts about U.S. complicity in the incident, and enabling the Soviet Union to present a plausible explanation for its action.
