| − | The important point that needs to be properly articulated in this article & elsewhere, dealing with the so-called "Hollywood Blacklist," and the so-called "Hollywood Ten," is this: these persons '''were not''' victims, and/or [[blacklist]]ed by the [[United States Government]], nor any [[Congressional Committee]], nor victimized by any individual members of Congress. These persons were (1) convicted of crimes in a Court of Law; (2) allegeldy "blacklisted" by a private sector entity, i.e. the [[Motion Picture Academy of America]] (the very same outfit that dispense the Oscars). This must be clearly articulated, and further, used as an example of Communist, and also [[liberal media]] biases, [[hoax]]es, and [[propaganda]], that the true hisotrical facts have been grossly, and repeated distorted, if not nakedly [[deceit|lied]] about.
