David Foster Wallace (1962–2008):
"TV is not vulgar and prurient and dumb because the people who compose the audience are vulgar and dumb. Television is the way it is simply because people tend to be extremely similar in their vulgar and prurient and dumb interests and wildly different in their refined and aesthetic and noble interests."
I hope the late Mr. Wallace is correct in that middle-class Indians like me still have "refined and aesthetic and noble interests".
