McGee Yinger © 2016 Megan C. McGee Yinger Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2016 The dissertation of Megan C. McGee Yinger was reviewed and approved* by the following: Charles Kupfer Associate Professor of American Studies and History Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee John R. Haddad Professor of American Studies and Popular Culture Charity D. Fox Assistant Professor of American Studies Richard S. Brown Assistant Professor of Management Simon J. Bronner Distinguished Professor of American Studies and Folklore Program Chair *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the intersection of corporate culture and popular culture in 20th and 21st century America, focusing in particular on the role of for-profit institutions. Focusing on the themes of cultural capital and consumer agency; intangible assets as a basis for competition; and the theoretical notion of rational amusement, this project uses case studies to investigate the roles of the New York Times, the National Broadcasting Company, and the Walt Disney Company in American corporate and popular culture. Case studies are the central keys to understanding the larger themes present within each corporation’s products and services. The New York Times is set apart in this project through its crossword puzzle and its publication of the Pentagon Papers. The crossword puzzle, through its association with the American “paper of record,” has come to be the gold standard of American-style crossword puzzles.

Dissertation Advisors: Elaine Scarry, Stephanie Burt Adrienne Raphel The Crossword Mentality in Modern Literature and Culture Abstract This dissertation examines the crossword’s influence in modern literature and culture in three sections: history, literature, and praxis. I argue that while the crossword relies on surface-level connections as aesthetic form, as a cultural mode, by thinking inside the box, people use the puzzle to make connections with each other. I first tell the story of the crossword from 1913 to the present, charting the crossword's evolution from an afterthought in the newspaper to one of the main media moneymakers of the twenty-first century. Ultimately, I argue that the crossword has become a reflection and an emblem of contemporary leisure-class culture in both America and England.
