.In her book, does she give specific examples of people who, according to liberal history accounts, were wrongly targeted by McCarthyism...but were in actuality (from her opinion) *rightly* targeted? She seems kind of vague in the excerpt...


She doesn't need to. Those stories are a dime a dozen. Read A Book (title) by Desi Arnaz for a good example.

If his book says he was persecuited by McCarthy, he is lying.

McCarthy was a Senator.

The Senate never investigated actors.

They appeared before the House UnAmerican Activities Committee.

You may have read in a history book that they were persecuited by McCarthy but that does not make it so.

Liberal historians have screwed up a lot of things, including this myth.

Desi Arnez was never a memeber of the Communist Party. Lucille Ball was, as a teen/young adult ( I don't remember her exact age at joining ) made to join by her step father and later repudiated it . McCarthy had absolutely NOTHING whatsoever to do with HUAC, Lucille Ball, and most assuredly nothing, nada, zilch, zip, zero to do with Desi !
