Heavily influenced by mass media, this collection of ideas permeates the everyday lives of the society. By contrast, folklore refers to the cultural mainstream of more local or pre-industrial societies. Popular culture is often viewed as being trivial and "dumbed-down" in order to find consensual acceptance throughout the mainstream. As a result, it comes under heavy criticism from various scientific and non-mainstream sources (most notably religious groups and countercultural groups) which deem it superficial, consumerist, sensationalist, and corrupted.

The current meaning of the term, culture for mass consumption, especially originating in the United States, is established by the end of World War II. The abbreviated form "pop culture" dates to the 1960s. From Wikipedia under the

Music - Did rock and roll help cause the generation gap, or did it just point out another area where there already was a gap? 2. Movies - Did movies like The Wild One and Rebel Without A Cause reflect life in mainstream America, or was it just Hollywood's view? 3. TV - Were TV families in the 1950's realistic?
