About
The Center for the Study of Popular Culture was a conservative nonprofit think tank established in 1988 by David Horowitz and Peter Collier, serving as the predecessor organization to the David Horowitz Freedom Center. It promoted conservative cultural criticism, analyzing and critiquing leftist influences and cultural Marxism in media and culture with a particular focus on Hollywood and academia. In 2006, it was rebranded as the David Horowitz Freedom Center to reflect an expanded focus on anti-terrorism and broader cultural and political analysis.
