famous 1940s

What was NOT one of the domestic impacts of the anti-Communist crusade of the late 1940s and through the 1950s?

a. Famous people in the film and entertainment industry were immune from the community witch hunts of the times
b. Social reforms began to be identified with socialism and communism that would lead to state run businesses and price fixing
c. Corrupt politicians were looking for someone to blame America’s problems (communists, gays, minorities); they wanted to find an angle that would assist their popularity with Americans and contribute to their polical powers
d. Spectacular trials, such as those of the Rosenbergs and Hiss, reaffirmed to Americans that communism existed and espionage was compromising the nation

a. Over 300 members of the film industry lost their jobs and were blacklisted. Some were fired for just being subpoenaed. Some of the people who were persecuted were; Charlie Chaplin, Leonard Berstein, WEB Du bois, John Garfield, Langston Hughes, Sam Jaffe, Burgess Meredith, Arthur Miller, J. Robert Oppenheimer father of the atomic bomb, Orson Welles, Linus Pauling winner of two Nobel Prizes, Edward G. Robinson, and Pete Seeger.
