Soviets Have Glasnost, We Have Motley Crue
How truly sad when the best that America can provide for glasnost at the Moscow Peace Festival is the correct pronunciation of the F-word by the Motley Crue rock group (“Moscow Marathon,” by Robert Hilburn, Aug. 11).
One would have hoped that this tasteless collection of morons would have followed the lead of Jon Bon Jovi in politely learning a few words of Russian.
Instead we in the United States must witness how certain bands fit very well into the “Ugly American” mold.
