The Pop History Dig is a content-rich destination website dedicated to public education on the history, politics, and business of popular culture, media, and entertainment. The site covers topics ranging from celebrity advertising and film history to presidential politics, television history, sports biography, and more.
One of the site’s topical areas includes the history and cultural impact of politics and political campaigns. Among stories in this category are those that cover political biography, political legacy, politics & business, politics & Hollywood, celebrity endorsements, politics & advertising, and others. Here is a sampling of stories currently posted at the site dealing with or involving, John F. Kennedy (JFK), Robert F. Kennedy (RFK), and/or the Kennedy family:

Pop History Dig stories currently appear on the first & second Google search-results pages, given relevant queries. In recent months the site has attracted visitors from more than 6,000 cities in at least 150 countries, including social historians, media analysts, and academic researchers who find it a credible and useful source on the history and power of contemporary culture.
The site is currently free & open to all users, but that could change without improved financial prospects. As owner/author of the site I am open to possible academic and/or institute-type affiliations or related research/teaching opportunities that might be found at colleges, universities, foundations, media & news organizations, or other venues. I am also seeking financial and technical assistance to broaden the site’s base and offer a consulting research service as well. If you have any suggestions, can offer assistance, or know of persons or organizations that can be helpful, please contact me at the e-mail address or phone number below. Thank you.
