BMiddle-brow culture

CRestrictive culture

DPopular culture ✓ Correct

Correct answer: (D) Popular culture

Explanation

Soaps, sit-coms and comics are part of popular culture, the widely enjoyed, mass-produced entertainment of everyday life.

High-brow culture names refined, elite art forms, the opposite of these mass-appeal formats.

Middle-brow culture sits between the elite and the popular, still not the plainly mass entertainment these examples belong to.

Restrictive culture is not an established category and does not describe this broadly consumed content.

These forms reach huge audiences and are shaped by commercial media.

Popular culture reflects the tastes and habits of the general public.
