Item Title What to Do with the American Teenager?
Guest Kaufman, Murray
Host Buckley, William F., Jr. (1925-2008)
Date CreatedNovember 14, 1966
Description

A culture clash of the first order between a host who believes in the accumulated wisdom of the ages and a guest ("the Fifth Beatle, as he has been called by one of the original four") who believes that people under 25 are more honest and more perceptive than their elders-with the exception of Mr. Kaufman, whose new book was called: Murray the K Tells It like It Is, Baby. MK: "The commentary [in today's lyrics] is not on the life of the teenager. It is on Vietnam, it is on the double facades of the so-called establishment ... and I will admit that there are times that you have to dig kind of deep, beyond the maze or, as maybe you would say, the cacophony of sound ..."
