Famous quotes related to popular culture:

    Popular culture is seductive; high culture is imperious.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    The lowest form of popular culture—lack of information, misinformation, disinformation, and a contempt for the truth or the reality of most people’s lives—has overrun real journalism. Today, ordinary Americans are being stuffed with garbage.
    Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
