Well, In Features, And In Writing Especially,

I Came Over Here And Worked For Rock Magazines, And I Worked For Rolling Stone, Which Has A Very High Standard Of Journalism, A Very Good Research Department.

I Don't Find Music Being Less Important Than, Like, Politics.

So No One Should Rely On Television Either For Their Knowledge Of Music Or For News. There's Just More Going On. It's An Adjunct To The Written Word, Which I Think Is Still The Most Important Thing.

So, Yeah, I Think It Had A Major Effect. I Think In Franchising Younger People, It Was Just An Idea That's Never Been Trotted Out Before, But It Makes Perfectly Good Sense.

And So Popular Culture Raises Issues That Are Very Important, Actually, In The Country I Think. You Get Issues Of The First Amendment Rights And Issues Of Drug Use, Issues Of Aids, And Things Like That All Arise Naturally Out Of Pop Culture.
