Our love with Wagner
Posted By: jay behrens
While womanizing and being a drunk may be bad things, per se, they are also things that Americans love to glorify in their heros. A hero that beats other people and is jsut generally downright nasty will get vilified. This is the big difference between the public personae of Ruth and Cobb. Ruth did bad things that the public glorified adn approved, while Cobb did things that you do not get rewarded for. Right or wrong, it is how or media and public looks at their heros.
