Yes he was, as proven by the Soviet Verona tapes. History and language were changed to paint him as evil. Being tarnished mercilessly by the left and Hollywood likely brought about his death.
Even people here wrongly use "McCarthyism" to convey acts that McCarthy never advocated or stooped to. He did not censor, blackball or persecute anyone. Most infamously is the association with the show trials of the House Committee on Unamerican Activities. Trouble is, McCarthy was a member of the Senate.
