The Media’s Failure to Fully Understand Free Markets

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

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

And certainly not of theory from free-market 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 and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
