Calling Carter "to task" happened twice. MSM even reported it both times

Today blogger Betsy Newmark did what all sensible Americans should regularly do: She teed off against former-Secretary of State Madeline Albright and former President Jimmy Carter.

A commenter supported Betsy but expressed regret that Carter had never "been called to task."

I responded with this comment (Slight changes made for clarity. - JinC):

Carter and his failed presidency were called to task in 1980 when the American people elected Ronald Reagan President.

Carter and his crowd were again "called to task" in 1984 when President Reagan defeated Carter's Vice President, Walter Mondale, in a landslide election in which Reagan carried 49 states.

Those elections were won in face of fierce opposition, not just from Carter, Mondale and the Democrats, but from their MSM allies who, then as now, dominate “news reporting” in America.”

All in all, that’s an impressive and appropriate calling to task of one of our most incompetent Presidents.

I rank Carter right up there with William Jefferson Clinton as one of our two Presidents most eager to apologize for America while praising themselves.

Now, if you want to argue that since 1984 the Democrats/ MSM have given Carter "cover" for the kind of President he was and the kind of former-President he is, you'll get no argument from me.
