“There is also the fact that Joe McCarthy never served in the House of Representatives and therefore never served on the HOUSE UnAmerican Activities Committee.”
Yes, the poster who wrote what I was responding to has his hands full making that fact clear to the uninformed.
My point was the House Committee on Un-American Activities (on which the Senator assuredly didn’t serve) had NOTHING to do with the Hollywood blacklist.
Hollywood blacklisted itself.
Who did hollywood blacklist? Anti commies?
