Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2006 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Medien, Kunst, Musik, Note: 1,0, Universität Wien, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Der Vergleich der Beatles mit Jesus Christus löste 1966 heftige Proteste in den USA aus. Die Beatles und ihr Sänger John Lennon sahen sich genötigt, eine Pressekonferenz in Chicago an den Anfang ihrer US-Tour zu stellen, um den aus dem Zusammenhang eines Interviews gerissenen Vergleich zu erklären und sich zu entschuldigen.

Dieser Trend zur Unterhaltung ist in den vergangenen Jahren zunehmend vor dem Hintergrund der Entpolitisierung diskutiert worden: der Entpolitisierung von Öffentlichkeit wie auch der Entpolitisierung von Politik selbst zur rein Effekt haschenden Show-Politik. Jugend und Unterhaltung waren in den vergangenen Jahren in der Di
