Recently I took an online history quiz from Trend-Chaser.com. One of the questions was as follows:
During the "Red Scare" a practice arose in which accusations would be made saying people were traitors or communists, without any kind of proper evidence. What was the name for this term?" (Source)
The choices were as follows:
1. Iron Curtain Hunt
2. Patriot Fears
3. McCarthyism
4. The Great Red Hunt
If you answered #3, you can move to the head of the class. Next question. If you wanted to answer #5 (none of the above), then check out the following 2 articles and 2 books for a more balanced view of Senator Joe McCarty:
