Notes
1. The author would like to thank Peter Bliss from the University of California, Riverside library system, for bibliographic insight.
2. Not surprisingly, Alfred Hitchcock said it earlier and better: ‘Television is like the American toaster, you push the button and the same thing pops up every time’ (qtd in Wasko Citation2005, 10).
3. Minow was named ‘top newsmaker’ of 1961 in an Associated Press survey, and was on television and radio more than any other Kennedy official.
