Once upon a time, WFAA8 had an "I am not a Communist" clause in standard employee contract

Our Back Channels page strikes again by reprinting a story that originated in 1981, not the “Red Scare” 1950s. Even so, Dallas-based WFAA8 was still including a Communist/subversive clause in its standard employee contract. And a previously hired employee said he quickly became un-hired after crossing the provision off. Amazing but still no less true 38 years later. The complete chapter-and-verse story is right here.
