==In popular culture== In the episode titled "Nixon vs. Kennedy" in first season of the [[AMC (TV channel)|AMC]] cable drama ''[[Mad Men]]'' a train supposedly carrying the unrecognizable body of Pvt. Dick Whitman, who was killed in the [[Korean War]], arrives in Sunbury. The escort officer with the casket is said to be Lt. Don Draper, and the casket is met by Dick Whitman's adoptive mother, his half brother, Adam and his mother's second husband. In fact, the person killed in Korea was Don Draper, and Dick Whitman has switched identities with Draper. Though Dick Whitman posing as Draper attempts to hide, Adam Whitman sees him, recognizes him, and chases the train as it leaves the station.<ref>Mad Men, Season One dvd</ref> On September 29, 2020, Sunbury was featured on the [[Comedy Central]] television series [[Tosh.0]] in a recurring video category called ''Shithole of the Week'', a segment in which host [[Daniel Tosh]] takes images or videos of various communities found online and will select the "Winner" based on the comedic negative features based in that community. The image that secured Sunbury's placement was a June 2020 video of a man spray painting "WIGHTE LIVES MATTER" on his personal fence with the intent of spelling "White Lives Matter".<ref>{{Cite web|last=WKOK Staff|date=2020-06-22|title='Wighte Lives Matter' painted on fence in Sunbury goes viral {{!}}|url=https://www.wkok.com/wighte-lives-matter-painted-on-fence-in-sunbury-goes-viral/|access-date=2021-03-17|website=www.wkok.com}}</ref> Nearby city [[Shamokin, Pennsylvania|Shamokin]] was a previous "winner" of the same segment in 2016.
