Charles Edward Coughlin (1891-1979) was an American Catholic priest who gained wide popularity in the USA during the 1930s. At the peak of his career, he broadcasted a radio program and edited a journal which had millions of listeners and readers and by which he spread his support of Nazi Germany and his anti-Semitic ideas.
