The correct answer is: **Fear of communist infiltration within the American entertainment industry.**
The House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) targeted the "Hollywood Ten" due to concerns that communist influences were present in the film industry, which was seen as a potential means of spreading communist ideology. This was part of the broader Red Scare during the late 1940s and early 1950s when fears of communism were particularly pronounced in the United States.
