Since McCarthy was a senator, HE didn’t have a “house” committee of any kind.
and, they were right to do what they were doing anyway.

Toledo Blade Cites McCarthy 'And His House Committee on Un-American Activities'

Toledo Blade must be populated with awful ignorant Urinalist (isn't that the norm?) Joseph McCarthy was a Senator it was the independent (Joe didn't create it or run it) House UnAmerican Activities Committee that went after all the Commies in Hollywood.

Sally, you ignorant Commie slut.

I’m not a fan of McCarthy or any other statist, regardless of who they are on a quest against. That witch hunt did more to promote communism than it did to prevent it.

"The VENONA Project files, declassified in 1995, provided indisputable evidence that nearly all of those McCarthy accused were traitors to America. Not surprisingly, the media ignored these documents completely, instead choosing to run yet another round of anti-McCarthy propaganda. As if that wasn't enough, in 2005 Hollywood released the greatest propaganda film since "Triumph of the Will", an anti-McCarthy slander picture known as "Good Night and Good Luck". Dead for fifty years, McCarthy's body has now been tarred, feathered, crucified, cremated, and his ashes shot into space by a leftist media who cannot handle the truth of their own miserable existence. The anti-McCarthy media claims the Senator wrongly implicated many. Despite their accusations, no critic has ever brought forth a single documented case of someone being wrongly accused by McCarthy.

In the 1950s, as then-Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R., Wis.) and his House Committee on Un-American Activities investigated liberal and progressive artists in search of Communist-oriented dissidents, Hellman and Bernstein collaborated on what would become one of several major works fomented by government activities: the play and film Cradle Will Rock, and Arthur Miller’s play and opera The Crucible are others.

There isn't a basis for discussion when one of the potential discussers would write something this stupid.

McCarthy was interested in investigated Soviet spies who had infiltrated the government, period.

He was not part of HUAC.

And since the release of the Verona cables & other classified documents, we now know McCarthy was right.

"The mainstream media are justifiably criticized for their reporting of what's taking place now. They don't do such a hot job of covering the past either. "

Just like a couple of weeks ago when the MSM talked about the "hundreds-of-thousands killed" by the Chernobyl melt-down.

In the same article they talked about the "greatest disaster in American history" as a result of the "reactor melt-down" at Three Mile Island.

Ignorance is bliss...for sure.
