Referring back to the first post, the blog's mandate is "to point out economic stupidity in the press."
Well, just to make it really clear, there are two kinds of economic stupidities.
One is where the journalist is merely reporting stupid things that people do.
The second is where the journalist actively says economically stupid things.
I have deliberately chosen to collapse the two because it is my belief that journalists should not merely report things but analyze them too. As in, if they do not provide a coherent analysis, they are lying, and hence must be exposed as either being stupid, or fraudulently manipulative.
I am perfectly aware that this definition of "journalism" is not in vogue currently but I'm willing to buck the trend.
