Questions to Consider:




  • What is important for us to know about Joseph McCarthy?
  • How/Why did the "witch hunts" of the 1950's take the name 'McCarthyism?'
  • How did McCarthy become so powerful and influential?
  • What happened to McCarthy after the finger-pointing ended?
  • To whom, in the play, might you compare McCarthy?
