The real problem is institutions like the NYT, the LIEO best symbolized by the NYT, the World is Flat Newspaper, lording it over a now flattened economy to blame on Washington rather than on itself.
It is not a problem Washington should only now be solving, but rather one which the NYT should have warned against, rather than having sponsored, say with the Marshall Plan as it later unwound into globalization, Bretton Woods from the beginning, or even with Wilson's initiatives, and then with FDR's opening to free trade after 1932.
Smell the coffee, game over.
Nothing worse than having encouraged us to be on the wrong side of longterm historical change, the Whig Milner Group Fallacy, rather then merely the Lorch Media Entertainment Problem. People like Drew Pearson of course did both at once!
Terms search Lorch, Drew Pearson, Brooks, Thomas Friedman
Liberal institutions like the NYT actually are primarily responsible for raising up a backward and anti intellectual conservative media even dumber than they: What I have called, following Lewis in The Big Short, The Dumb Money Ideology.
