Though, as time went on, McCarthy's ideas began to decline and people like Edward Murrow began to report against McCarthy to bring him down. Because of this instant technology, McCarthy's ideas declined rapidly, which caused him to be censured by the United States Senate. Though the new technology helped with introducing new ways of entertainment, it also made it easier for Americans to hear news instantly.
