The National Anthem Isn T A Pop Song Summary
“The National Anthem Isn’t a Pop Song” by Mark Corallo Critique
For many reasons, Mark Corallo’s article on Christina Aguilera’s performance does not fulfill its purpose in any great extent. His assumptions were not all accurate. He claims her singing on kick- off Sunday night was an embarrassment to herself and everyone else. It also states mostly how she didn’t even have the right lyrics to the song. The article drew a lot of attention to Christina and how she was the wrong person for this position. Corallo starts off stating how “we should be so critical of a pop star that probably has no idea of the origins of the Star Spangled Banner.” (par. 2) This statement would be considered a hasty generalization by Corallo. It is not in all cases
