You are referring to 1950s McCarthyism and it's great fear of the communists, I presume. if so, politicians that angered the Wisconsin senator, Senator McCarthy, were the ones ending up on the blacklist, and though most of the accusations proved false, the damage was done.

What was a blacklist How did political witch-hunts result in these lists?

In general, a blacklist is a list of people or organizations suspected of crimes or of activities to undermine the society. In the case of the witch-hunt against communism in the McCarthy era, the blacklist consisted of people and organizations suspected of communist and anti-American sympathies. The original blacklist was drawn up by Senator McCarthy, but he forced people to add their own blacklists to his - and some did not even need much forcing, such as Ronald Reagan, the later US President. His blacklist meant the end of the careers of a great number of his Hollywood fellow-actors and movie makers. In the end, a Congressional Committee scrutinized the blacklists and found them to be " a tissue of fabrications". It meant the end of McCarthy's career.
