Newsweek Slams 'Hate' from 'Antigovernment Extremists,' Links to Beck and Palin: "The April 19 Newsweek cover that's shamelessly selling the 'remarkable' tale of our economic recovery also promises a story on 'Hate on the Right.' In fact the word 'HATE' takes up half a page, white letters on a black background, with the subhead 'Antigovernment extremists are on the rise – and on the march.'
Pictures illustrating the article strangely connect Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin with 1930's socialists. The caption read: 'Huey Long castigated the rich and Father Coughlin denounced Jews in the 1930s. Today, the microphones belong to Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin.' (Beck's previous impassioned rebuttal of the comparison to Coughlin is ignored.) This would not be the first time Newsweek's imagined 'right wing' Coughlin as an Obama foil."
