Author of “For Whom the Bell Tolls”, Nobel prize-winning American novelist Ernest Hemingway was allegedly on the list of Soviet KGB agents in America back in the 1940s.
The claim is more sensationalistic McCarthyism, designed to trash a "liberal-left culture figure" and, of course, to sell books. Note that this cooperation began in 1941, with WW II well underway - when the USSR/KGB were anti-fascist allies, a little fact so conveniently but predictably overlooked by said McCarthyite types. Later on it's added that he "didn't really do anything," etc. & blah: so why then even raise the issue? See first sentence. . . .
