Sad that you don't get it. I'll repeat - the correct title of the congressional committe was (it no longer exists) The House Select Committee on Un-American Activities, NOT the House Un-American Activities Committee. The committee was not involved in un-american activities as the left, communists, and fellow-travelers would have the unwashed masses believe. Suggest you read Witness by Chambers, which points out this great proprogranda success.

You're not the only one who makes this point. George Putnam, of radio station KRLA, always points out this seemingly nitpicky detail. He also knows it was deliberately altered to affect perceptions of the committee's efforts.
