Afterward, he signed a new studio contract while some of his ratted-out colleagues were placed on the infamous Hollywood blacklist.

Has anyone ever seen a copy of that "blacklist?"

It should be published with the federal directive ordering the public to stop buying Dixie Chicks stuff.

Ratted-out, wilted are words used by this employee of the newspaper. In the days of multiple newspapers in each city of any size we had a free press. The American public knew of the contempt that some had for our representatives in Congress and for our Republic.

We would not pay to see movies made by traitors -- unlike today. Hollywood knew that. What we did not know was that many of the traitors continued working under different names. The rest went to other countries away from the country they hated. There they continued working.

Mr. Kazan's name is at the top of Hollywood's only blacklist.

During the height of the Stalinist infiltration of Hollywood in the 1930's, there was truly a blacklist -- but it was of anti-Stalinists by the Stalinists

If somebody had outed a Klan plot to infiltrate Hollywood, would these people still call him a fink?
