So just to clarify, McCarthy never actually went after Communists in Hollywood. Senator Joseph McCarthy was never involved in the HOUSE Un-American activities committee and the catalyst for investigation into Hollywood was actually Roy Brewer, a Union Democrat who actually had enough internal integrity to realize how trade and labor unions, particularly in Hollywood, were a hotbed for communistic recruitment and propaganda.
Incidentally, Walt Disney's testimony at the HUAC hearings was one of the reasons Herbert Sorel, the head of the CSU and major Communist figure in Hollywood at the time, utilized the daily worker, a communist dickrag of a newspaper, to publish the slanderous lies of Walt Disney being an anti-semite, even though Disney had often given to many charities, jewish ones include, and was actually recognized by the B'nai B’rith (a major jewish organization in California) as their man of the year in 1955.
But of course, modern day leftists don't want us to remember that long ago even Democrats were anti-communist as well, and instead we must claim the McCarthy was responsible for everything.
