history
I can remember the t.v. show of Daniel Boone and Davy Crockett. Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier. Daniel Boone was a man, was real man (at least thats how I think the song went). I'd go back to those days in a second.
hahaha yes, I remember the shows, too. It was a more innocent time, and a time filled with simplier pleasures, a slower, more considerate pace. Not that these people were perfect, but they had character, which is sadly lacking in many people these days.
those stories have been trivialized by Disney..
Iconic archetypes reduced to 2 dimensional animated "entertainment"..
and what about the classics?
the Three Musketeers is now "Disney's Three Musketeers"
and reading books is now a lost art to anyone under 30

It is sad, for sure. More importantly, Disney is controlling the evolution of our culture ... and it's not leading, as you point out, in a beneficial direction for anyone!
you're right..it's just filling a perceived void in entertainment..
I thinks schools should teach a "reading" class

I don't know about you, but I think I read every bit of American Folklore ever published prior to 1962... And loved it!
It wouldn't surprise me if it isn't any longer in grade school librarys - thanks to our beloved governments concern about "no child left behind" or to be able to think for themselves!
Well ... I think it goes a lot further back than either Bush, and it's not up to schools to teach important heritage/character things, anyway, right? 
Like so many things, I think it goes back to the 60's when our media destroyed our innocence, compromised our heritage, and idolized their ambiguous top dollar-bought-bias as truth ... But before I begin to wax poetic, I'll consider my BP! lol
