Glenn Beck was drinking from the same well. Fox News, January 2010: "Woodrow Wilson, this is an evil S.O.B. Man, you need to read about Wilson. Bad dude. He passed the Revenue Act of 1913. Blatantly unconstitutional, but people let it slide..." www.mediamatters.org/glenn-beck/s...
In 2009-2010, Glenn Beck popularized the hatred of Woodrow Wilson among the Tea Party. Beck drew inspiration from Ronald Pestritto, a professor at Hillsdale College, and Cleon Skousen, an influential Mormon conspiracist. Skousen believed Wilson's Fed and income tax were parts of an evil conspiracy.
