During the 1950s, television and the media encouraged Americans to reject traditional values.
take part in consumer culture.
dismiss the idea of conformity.
save money and avoid spending.

I would say it would be a mixed answer since many did save money and not spend while others took part of consumer culture, thought the traditional values and ideas of conformity continued to change as time went on.
