They are professors, God like in their splendor, they know things we hoi-polloi could not even imagine, therefore they are right.Middle Age Russ wrote:There seems to be an epidemic in academic circles of professors taking stances and making statements about issues they have no personal experience with or understanding of. The media seems to flock to them lending an air of legitimacy to their views that is unwarranted. To compound things, this media behavior leads others to seek their 15 minutes of fame by speaking out in a similar vein, particularly those who seek fame as much as anything else. This behavior is sort of like our out of control federal welfare apparatus -- a self-perpetuating beast. Wouldn't it be refreshing to have media outlets simply ignore the musings of media hounds in academia and elsewhere and find sources with knowledge and experience to expound upon the issues of the day? I know it isn't likely when political power, influence and wealth are part of the equation, but I think it would be refreshing just the same.

She obviously never met either of my wives, or my daughters.
