Westbrook Pegler argues that entertainment dominates American life surpassing religion and civic duty. He notes the rise of film, sports, music, journalism focused on small talk and crime, and the country’s two week leisure bursts, criticizing loud, abrasive, lowbrow culture as unrepresentative of true American taste. He warns about the entertainment industry’s vast influence since World War I and questions the public’s indulgence in noisy, cheap music and nightlife.
