Was Welles ever formally sanctioned during the post-war "red scare"?

  • No

  • Yes

  • Perhaps

  • None of the above

Answer

Although Welles had his political views questioned, he was never formally sanctioned by the government. This was likely due to the fact that he was not an active member of the Communist Party and did not publicly advocate for communism. Additionally, his work was often seen as apolitical or even anti-communist, which may have helped to protect him from being blacklisted.
