The Media’s Lack of Free Market Knowledge

Few general media reporters, columnists and editors have free market views and, certainly, a background on financial subjects.

In addition to what generalities journalists are ever taught, they receive a modicum of economic and financial training in school.

Not theory from economists such as Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, Thomas Sowell, Walter E. Williams, among others.

Thus you get left-leaning slants in many financial articles. ( See the Earl J Weinreb NewsHole® comments.)
