The media/liberal indoctrination has been so successful most people don't know that McCarthy had nothing to do with Hollywood. His targetswere mostly in the State Department.
“McCarthy’s terrible Hollywood blacklisting as a member of HUAC”
I hope that you also impart the news that the House Committee on Un-American Activities had nothing to do with the Hollywood blacklist.
No congressional body or government office maintained a blacklist or ordered any studio to fire anybody.
The men who drafted and enforced the blacklist were the heads of the studios. They were private citizens who held no government office.
I had not read your #5 when I posted my #11. I should have known that someone would have posted that Joe McCarthy was a US Senator and neither a member of the House or HUAC. My apologies! May God bless you and yours!
