Associated Press and 58 others April 28, 2008 -- Scorching rhetoric and negative campaigning aren't confined to the long presidential contest. They're spilling over into other segments of public life. "It's partly this environment where we can't let things slide," said Wayne Fields, director of the American Cultural Studies program at WUSTL. "There's big bucks to be made.

| Missouri vote signals complex national mood
Chicago Tribune Feb. 7, 2008 -- Missouri has an uncanny ability to choose presidential winners, going with the loser only once in the past century (Adlai Stevenson in 1956). The state is effectively an intersection of cultural forces — urban and rural, north and south, east and west — and it periodically swings with prevailing national moods. WUSTL American culture studies director Wayne Fields comments. |
