: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."
:34:00
"Any man who says, "I will protect
and honor a General'..."
:34:03
"...'who protects Communists', is not
fit to wear that uniform, General."
:34:08
Ethically, we're fine.
:34:10
But legally, if we air this, are we
leaking closed hearing testimony?
:34:13
- But he chose to read it.
- We're not misquoting him.
:34:16
- There are other reporters.
- If it's a legal issue, it's his.
:34:19
I'll check with Campbell in Legal.
:34:20
And wait till you hear
the bleeding hearts...
:34:23
...scream and cry about our methods...
:34:26
...of trying to drag the truth...
:34:30
...from those who know
or should know...
:34:32
...who covered up
a Fifth Amendment Communist Major.
:34:36
But they say, "Oh..."
:34:38
"...it's all right to uncover them,
but don't get rough doing it, McCarthy."
:34:44
Did a Civil Liberties Union provide
you with an attorney at that time?
:34:49
I had many offers of attorneys...
:34:51
...and from the American Civil Liberties
Union, too. - The question is:
:34:55
...did the Civil Liberties Union
supply you with an attorney?
:34:58
- They did supply an attorney.
- The answer is yes?
