What is Pop. Culture?

Popular culture (commonly known as pop culture) is the ideas, images and other stuff that are deemed preferred within the mainstream of a given culture. Heavily influenced by mass media (at least from the early 20th century onward) and this collection of ideas permeates the everyday lives of the society. Popular culture is often viewed as being trivial and "dumbed-down" in order to find consensual acceptance throughout the mainstream.

Popular culture covers a variety of subjects such as cooking, clothing, consumption, and the many facets of entertainment such as sports, music, film, and literature.
