On March 9th, 1954, Edward R. Murrow presented a 25-minute television exposé of the Wisconsin senator’s anticommunist crusade. Using evidence from McCarthy’s speeches and hearings, Murrow argued that the senator’s unsavory tactics involved “the half-truth” and investigations in which his bullying was “protected by immunity.” McCarthy attacked Murrow by calling him a communist, but the journalist deftly countered the accusation and damaged McCarthy’s reputation in the process.
