Why did the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) target the film industry beginning in 1947?
 
  a. It had evidence of the communist activities of the directors, writers, and actors who dominated Hollywood.
  b. A recently concluded labor strike against a major studio underscored the growing power of the labor movement, especially the CIO, which HUAC believed to be dominated by Communists and left-wing unions.
  c. The HUAC was controlled by the conservative heads of some of the major film studios who hoped to use HUAC's attacks to weaken their rivals.
  d. The President of the Screen Actors Guild, Ronald Reagan, hoped to advance his political career and encouraged the HUAC investigations.
