Inhaltsangabe

<jats:p> Norman Mailer's recent article in Esquire, "Of a Small and Modest Malignancy, Wicked and Bristling With Dots"<jats:sup>1</jats:sup> is a wry "confessional" of how, is spite of his moral loathing for television, he has continued to appear on it in the clear knowledge that the medium had proved useless as a means of selling either his ideas or his books. The important thing was that (and this is something Mailer does not confess) TV had given good exposure to Mailer's public image and that his subsequent reporting on his TV capers has contributed further to his campaign of self-advertising, something he has been doing in and out of literature for the last 20 years. </jats:p>
