MLK's daughter and DJ Paul call out Newsweek for posting photo of Martin Luther King in his casket


Newsweek has received criticisms after they posted a photo of Martin Luther King's corpse in his casket. Amongst those calling the news network out are Martin Luther King's daughter, Bernice King and DJ Paul.
Bernice King called Newsweek out via a tweet while DJ Paul condemned their action during an interview.

TMZ met with DJ Paul at LAX, and asked him about Newsweek's controversial tweet with a photo of MLK's corpse which was attached to an op-ed story about MLK. Paul believes the magazine is guilty of what might be the worst-timed clickbait ever -- with the MLK holiday coming next week, and the 50th anniversary of his assassination approaching in April.
While Newsweek has apologized to the King family for what it admits was an "egregious error" ... DJ Paul says it should go one step further, and fire whoever allowed the use of the image.
