PUNDITS VERSUS ACADEMIC OR FORENSIC RESEARCHERS AND EXPERTS

Believe me, this is an area fraught with many kinds of difficulties, even to discuss very briefly.
 
But these difficulties are connected with problems of punditry, and of specialization,  raised by such a notion as a pundit fallacy.
 
Does the specialist call the pundit on the carpet for what the specialist considers a pundit fallacy?
 
Makes a lot of sense to me, but there is then the dark side, that of the patronage, or the agenda, of the specialist, himself another pundit, in a sense, in such a confrontation, in the shark tank.
