Sinclair’s Flattery and the 1970s Editorial Boom
A critical column contrasts Sinclair’s praise of American exceptionalism with the era’s editorial excess. It links his tone to Higgins in My Fair Lady, notes discomfort with flattery, and questions claims of Americans being the most generous yet least appreciated. The piece warns of ongoing demand for praise and swift political and economic recovery.
