Geoff Berner@roadriverrail @tin_can_sam Professional wrestling is the real cultural Ur text of America. Bob Dylan's Chronicles credit Gorgeous George the famous flamboyant "heel" for his understanding of how to manipulate the press and the public with a persona. Muhammed Ali also credited the same man's work as a source for his own deft understanding of persona-based public self-promotion. People should be taking wrestling seriously as an important cultural political kind of American idea laboratory.
