“Popular culture entered my life as Shirley Temple, who was exactly my age and wrote a letter in the newspapers telling how her mother fixed spinach for her, with lots of butter.... I was impressed by Shirley Temple as a little girl my age who had power: she could write a piece for the newspapers and have it printed in her own handwriting.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“The eating of a MacDonalds meal is like the reading of Readers Digestsmall, easily digested, carefully processed, carefully cut down, abridged. Readers Digest gives us knowledge that is easily compartmentalized, simplified, ideologically sound.”
—Clive Bloom, British educator. MacDonalds Man Meets Readers Digest, Readings in Popular Culture: Trivial Pursuits?, St. Martins Press (1990)
