During his presidency, JFK proposed campaign finance laws that, as Monika Wiesak shows, would likely have helped to limit the effect of big money in American elections.

In part 2, DiEugenio specifically addresses both films of the Oates’ novel, the CBS version and especially Brad Pitt’s 2022 production. Both are worthless, especially Pitt’s, but in examining them the author reveals something sick about a culture that forces complex and sympathetic people into exploitative piles of junk.

Jim DiEugenio analyzes the persons—Jeanne Carmen and Fred Otash—and books—by Tony Summers and Robert Slatzer—involved in the descending landmarks that resulted in Joyce Carol Oates’ pulp novel about Marilyn Monroe, Blonde.
