Answer: He was reprimanded by the Senate. The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
McCarthy was a senator who used the public's fear of communists for his own political gain. He was known to use fake pictures to make it look like other senators and elected officials were in cahoots with top communists.
The term " McCarthyism" is named for this man and his scaremonger tactics to the American public. The public finally caught on after televised court hearings where he went to far in his questioning. He was reprimanded by the Senate. He was also censured during this time.
