Well that’s been obvious for a long time. For example we all knew Kenneth Rogoff was talking BS with his pro-austerity / fiscal consolidation message during the crisis. But he’s based at H-A-R-V-A-R-D. So that means, in the eyes of the numpties who make up most of the population, that he must have some sort of fantastically clever point.
Same goes for Summers with his yawn provoking “secular stagnation” idea.
The media are trained via the same methodology as those Harvard guys Ralph...
So they can understand their own type of people better and report on them...
And most of the numpties too....
