Title

"Where Are The Heroes" John Fitch IV Column

Description

In this John Fitch IV column, Cormier laments the commodification of our heroes. Citing the example of the legendary Joe DiMaggio selling coffee makers, he argues that this consumerism robs our heroes of their mystery and mystique and that television makes for a more vulgar society.
