Ok, he was definitely are prominent Republican (though more in the Nixonian socially liberal school) but where does the "great fascist" part come from? Are we talking about one of the Synarchist conspiracy theories here (or perhaps simply because he was a member of Skull and Bones at Yale)? Or just using fascist and Republican as synonyms?

This is why I personally won't go near Life, House & Home, or Sport Illustrated, three other magazines he founded. The fascist stench of the NFL reporting is just too strong.

I'm afraid I'll have to withhold my amen until I learn if there is something fascist about Luce of which I am unaware.
