Hollywood Blacklist, Then and Now

The liberal elite is never more hypocritical than on the topic of the Hollywood blacklist that supposedly darkened the land in the days of McCarthy. Watch TCM’s Noir Alley for an example; virtually every week, host Eddie Muller waxes indignant on the horrific oppression communists in Hollywood once endured.

Now the foot is on the other hand, as Ted Striker would say:

Although he had nothing to do with the HUAC or the Hollywood blacklist, Joe McCarthy is remembered as the personification of resistance to communist infiltration. McCarthy turned out to be more right than anyone knew. Yet he is demonized to this day by people who use the tactics they denounce him for using. A major difference is that McCarthy was trying to defend his country, not destroy it.
