I selected this because it's the quickest to refute:
Here he refers to Prof. Klehr's work as
"outrageous McCarthyite POV
Red-baiting defamatory Blacklist
"

No he doesn't.
He earlier added some commentary on the list which according to the edit
summary "added critical POV to balance page list".
This was then removed with the comment "this page is a list of names, not a
forum to debate their significance".
The edit in question restres the commentary with the summary"Revert:
Otherwise this is an outrageous McCarthyite POV Red-baiting defamatory
Blacklist".
In other words, the words you quote above refer to our article on the
subject, not to the list itself, with the disclaimer that this description
covers a version of the list without commentary.
