What happened after they testified? Were they arrested? Imprisoned? What?

As I recall, from another NPR episode, most just couldn't find work. Some ran to Mexio, and still couldn't find work. (Their work was pretty bad)

They later made a living out of being on the black-list. Last year (or the year before), a very old communist held a one-man protest at some awards ceremony and the leftists made a big deal about it. Sheesh. I've seen 4 year olds do better.

Nothing happened to them, other than that they were "outed" and their fellow artists (using term loosely) didn't want to work with them? That's it? That's IT, that's the whole dreaded, dark, chilling McCarthy era??
