In late 1851, the Democratic Review was acquired by George Nicholas Sanders. Similar to O'Sullivan, Sanders believed in the inherent value of a literary-political relationship, whereby literature and politics could be combined and used as an instrument for socio-political progress.

Because of the didactic stridency associated with some of these films' anti-drug lecturing, the productions have been frequently classified as camp and shown as fillers at Turner Classic Movies' Saturday night–Sunday morning film showcase series, TCM Underground.

Alistair Horne, Macmillan's biographer, describes Victims of Yalta as "an honorable, and profoundly disturbing book which pulled no punches", but he was highly critical of Tolstoy's follow-up books, arguing that their increasing stridency and tendency to twist the evidence to fit a preconceived theory effectively vitiated them as serious works of history. Horne also notes that Macmillan, then 90, felt he was too old to initiate a suit to defend himself. Horne's final judgement is that fresh evidence, uncovered after the publication of Victims of Yalta, proves Tolstoy's notion of a conspiracy was not just wrong- headed, but outright wrong.

The show's standout renditions were thought to be "Alright", as Jackson "flung limbs in impossible directions", in addition to "I Get Lonely" and "Black Cat", which showcased Jackson "head-banging with rare violence." Kot commended Jackson's vocals, saying "her delicate touch conveyed an innocence and sweetness not often heard on the pop charts anymore. That's a unique legacy in pop; whereas the charts are often dominated by stridency, Jackson brought sensuality and understatement.

In the opinion of several singers, the heavy roles undertaken in her early years damaged Callas's voice. The mezzo-soprano Giulietta Simionato, Callas's close friend and frequent colleague, stated that she told Callas that she felt that the early heavy roles led to a weakness in the diaphragm and subsequent difficulty in controlling the upper register. Louise Caselotti, who worked with Callas in 1946 and 1947, prior to her Italian debut, felt that it was not the heavy roles that hurt Callas's voice, but the lighter ones. Several singers have suggested that Callas's heavy use of the chest voice led to stridency and unsteadiness with the high notes.

Carney is highly critical of Hollywood filmmaking, and the way it is approached from an academic standpoint. He is well known for the controversial stridency with which he attacks directors such as Steven Spielberg, Brian De Palma, the Coen brothers, Stanley Kubrick, Orson Welles, David Lynch and Quentin Tarantino, whom he describes as tricksters using empty style and pseudo-intellectualism to score points with an "in" crowd. Carney often refers to Spielberg's output after Schindler's List (1993) as "Steven 'Please take me seriously' Spielberg movies". Carney is as critical of the academic establishment that gives plaudits to these directors as he is of the filmmakers themselves.

He was supported in his views by the Conservative Secretary of State for India, Leo Amery. However, the United States, as Britain's principal ally saw things in even more urgent terms.

According to Warrack and West, the banda "makes its most marked appearance in Verdi's operas, where its stirring, frankly vulgar sound accorded well with the general Risorgimento feeling of such early works as Nabucco and I Lombardi. In his later operas he used the banda convention in a more flexible fashion, ranging from the subtlety of the ballroom scenes in Rigoletto and Un ballo in maschera to the stridency of the auto-da-fé scene of Don Carlos." Julian Budden, dismissing Rossini's use of the banda as "always naturalistic and perfunctory", continues by dismissing Donizetti's and Bellini's banda music, and finally writes "It was left to Verdi to plumb the depths of vulgarity with his banda marches, even at a time when his style as a whole had reformed. .... The so-called Kinsky band at Venice had a very high reputation, and Verdi, who had refused to write for it in Attila, took good care to include it in all his subsequent Venetian operas".
