McCarthy

Just watched this film on Free Speech TV. As a Butte resident, I felt it was somewhat accurate in detailing some of the labor strife here that led to Frank Little's murder. However, the film insinuates that a younger Joseph McCarthy was involved in events here, as a means to segue into commentary on the Red Scare of the 1940s-50s. There may have been a miner named Joe McCarthy but it was not the Joe McCarthy who was a senator of Wisconsin. The film also left out the the dynamiting of the Butte Miners Union hall on June 23, 1914, but since Wobblies were suspects in that violence, it wouldn't have helped the story line much.
