It was a quid-pro-quo arrangement -- a you-scratch-my-back-I'll-scratch-yours type of situation. In the post-War era, Communism was the new boogeyman used by the Imperialists to exert their influence around the world (Nazism allowed the Allies to destroy the German infrastructure and rebuild it as they saw fit). Hollywood was an enormous propaganda machine for the government both throughout the war and after. Flushing out a few "reds" from the system was not a matter of morals or ethics -- it was a matter of doing business and the studio system was happy to oblige (just as overthrowing a few dictators or democratically elected leaders here and there was a matter of "ensuring liberty" for the CIA).
It was not a question of Hollywood executives standing by their employees so much as Hollywood executives exerting control of the narrative being written about their industry. In business, public relations are crucial. Condemning a few "leftists" was a type of corporate social responsibility in the post-War era, as far as they were concerned. Should they have stood by their employees? -- perhaps, if they were interested in conveying a different narrative -- but that was not the case in the post-War era. The Cold War was the narrative and the Hollywood industry helped to develop the script.

The Cold War was but a looming threat that would escalate fiercely in the 1960s—but in the 50s, Americans were generally content to enjoy themselves. Still, the specter of Communism loomed and had been perceived as an encroaching problem in Hollywood since the 1930s. Following WW2, Senator
McCarthy and the Cold War One aspect of history is that a country's so-called "friend" one day, can be an enemy the next and visa versa. The United States and Soviet Union during World War II joined ranks against the real threat of Nazi Germany. However, it did not take long after the end of the war for Russia and the United States to once again bully each other. Even before
Cold War and Film Generally speaking, the Cold War has been depicted as an era of spy games and paranoia in popular films from the 1960s to the present day, but the reality of the era was much more complex. The Cold War was a period of military and political tension from 1947 to 1991, or from the end of WW2 to the collapse of the Soviet Union, in which
movie industry in America has been controlled by some of the monolithic companies which not only provided a place for making the movies, but also made the movies themselves and then distributed it throughout the entire country. These are movie companies and their entire image revolved around the number of participants of their films. People who wanted to see the movies being made had to go to the "studios"
