About Me
- Tenured Radical
- New Haven, Connecticut, United States
- I am Claire B. Potter, Professor of History and American Studies at Wesleyan University, Middletown, CT. My blogging ethic is neither to name or to accurately describe individuals unless I am writing about a public event, or commenting on information already published about that person in a reputable source. Unless I note otherwise, situations, pseudonymous people and professional dilemmas described here are fictional. Uncivil or mean-spirited comments toward me or anyone else will be deleted, as will advertisements for products or services disguising themselves as comments. The Radical can also be found at her Zenith faculty page and at Cliopatria; scholarly and public writing can also be found here. The banner photo was taken from this page.

I had actually never watched this until just now. It is jaw-dropping. No parody over the years even comes close to capturing its gut-wrenching, train-wreck combination of sexual exploitation, fatuous celebrity worship, and all-around Sixties masculine New Frontierism. It gives me the willies.
And notice how he says the "late" Marilyn Monroe? Wow.
