		The most extensive genre studies of class are Richard Butsch's "Class and Gender in Four Decades of Television Situation Comedies" (in Critical Studies in Mass Communication) and Butsch and Lynda Glennon's 1982 and 1983 essays in the Journal of Broadcasting and the report on Television and Behavior.

	DYSKE - Beyond “Upper” Art
		This is easy to see especially in food culture—many in the lower class and some in the middle class live their entire lives not knowing what foie gras is. Not all mediums of art are popular across all classes.
		In this sense, Fine Arts should be called “upper art” not “high art.” Most artists are in the middle class when they start their careers as artists, but for them to be successful, they must cultivate the taste of the upper class.
		Since the tastes of the upper-middle class and the upper class are quite different, the artists who please the former may find themselves stuck with a moderate success, unable to achieve the status of “blue chip” artists.

	On "class warfare"
		The connection between "upper class" and income and power was already getting cloudy when Jay Gatsby moved to West Egg, and by now it's almost too vague to define.

		That's the trick to all this talk of "class warfare." Middle-income Americans may be painfully aware of the gulf that separates them from the wealthy, but they don't think of those in terms of class lines.
