− | According to [[Philip Klass]] ([[William Tenn]]), [[Sturgeon]] said this in 1951, at a talk at New York University . It was subsequently included in a talk at the [[1953 Worldcon]] in [[Philadelphia]]. He said, "90% of science fiction is crap." This upset his audience, but then he added, "90% of ''everything'' is crap."
