ZeroHedge vs. the Financial Media

Filed Under Intellectual Honesty 

Must read article by ZeroHedge which succinctly states why they have enjoyed such success and why the “financial media” are now playing catch-up.

When discussing financial matters, the “financial media” represented by “Establishment” type reporters and bloggers, just like the financial “regulators”, is woefully behind the curve.

Watching pretty faces like Brian Williams, Anderson Cooper and Charlie Gibson fade into oblivion is a delight; the fewer adults watching these powerpoint presentations of repetitive Democrat vs. Republican nonsense, sound-bite reporting and oversimplifications, the better.

Jaywalking is a good representation of the effects of 12+ years of schooling and “news” on our culture.

Takeaway:  Your mind is the most powerful “muscle” in your body.  Keep it in shape by reading and conversing with those you disagree with and those that challenge your existing views.  Watching 22.5 minutes of political gossip and sponsor-approved stories will rot your brain.

    I believe everything posted was very logical. But,
    what about this? suppose you added a little information? I am not saying your content
    is nott solid, however what if you added something that makes
    people desire more? I mean ZeroHedge vs. the Financial Media | Inthon is kinda
    boring. You ought to peek at Yahoo’s front page annd watch how they create pst titles to get people to opn the links.
    You might add a related video or a picture or two to grab people excited about what you’ve got to say.

    In my opinion, it could make your website a little livelier.
