But Editorial will not jeopardize
the hundreds of employees...

:32:04
...of the CBS.
Do I make myself clear?

:32:08
Yes?
:32:15
Fellas, our next show is gonna be
about Senator McCarthy.

:32:19
And we'regonna go right at him.
:32:21
I don't need to tell you
how careful we have to be.

:32:24
If we are to do this, Ed and I
need you to be straight with us.

:32:27
We need to know,
for the good of the piece...

:32:29
...if any of you have any connection,
if you subscribed to a newsletter...

:32:33
...if you attended a party,
anything...

:32:35
...anything that could compromise this,
anything at all...

:32:38
...because now would be
the time to tell us.

:32:46
Ed, I think I should excuse myself.
:32:49
Palmer, you kidding?
:32:51
My ex was a...
I wouldn't say she was a Communist...

:32:54
...but she attended meetings.
It was before we were married.

:32:57
I didn't even really know about it
until after the divorce.

:33:00
But it was different then.
We were all on the same side.

:33:04
I'm not telling you anything
you don't know. The thing is...

:33:07
...somebody'll find out.
:33:10
They'll hurt us with it.
:33:13
I should have told you sooner, Ed,
I'm sorry.

:33:17
Fred.
:33:21
If none of us had ever read
a "dangerous" book...

:33:24
...or had a friend
who was "different"...

:33:26
...or never joined an organization
that advocated "change"...

:33:28
...we'd all be the kindof people
Joe McCarthy wants.

:33:33
We're gonna go with the story,
because the terror is in this room.

:33:40
John! Jesse!
Go through the HUAC hearings.

:33:43
Eddie! Palmer! Look at who
did the interviews and any speeches.

:33:47
Okay, fellas, here we go.
:33:49
His own words,
that's what we need.

:33:51
...said that he wouldn't remove
a General from the Army...

:33:54
...who supported a Communist Major.
I said, "Then, General..."

:33:57
"...you should be removed
from any command."
