    Wallace-Wells, David. "Factory Man." Newsweek 154.24 (2009): 66-68. Academic Search Complete. EBSCO. Web. 15 Nov. 2010. This article focuses on critics of pop art and Andy Warhol.  One critic is quoted saying, "You're a killer of art, you're a killer of beauty, and you're even a killer of laughter".  Warhol was not concerned with how he looked to others; he only cared about his work portraying what he saw important.  It also talks about the assassination attempt on Warhol.
