this is the #1 topic of the los angeles times because many of these people were from hollywood. the times carried this on the front page the other day. whenever one of these people dies, the times celebrates with a half page obituary.

nixon as a young congressman played a key role in huac, and he paid dearly for it. the left never forgave dick nixon for his participation in huac or his u.s. senate race against helen gilhagen douglas, whom he called "pink".

nixon was a victim of his own hubris and the media left.
