Is it any wonder why journalists like this have no idea how to write about policies affecting middle and lower class Americans and instead prefer to focus on the superficial?

This coming from someone who lived off of polls.
I don’t get it. Your dissing on these people because they have the chops to buy nice houses?
Or are you dissing on the people who thought it was news worthy?
He’s criticizing the ability of wealthy journalists “to write about policies affecting middle and lower class Americans.”
I’m just wondering if he would also criticize the ability of wealthy politicians to speak about and develop “policies affecting middle and lower class Americans”?
In other words, does being wealthy mean you can’t understand anyone else?
It means John Edwards, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid belong to the “gilded set”.
They certainly do, but they show through their actions they can still talk to and address those poorer than them. Versus journalists who simply cannot write about middle-low class economics with any authenticity.
What makes you think someone can’t write about something outside of their personal experience?
Perhaps they are finally at a point in their lives when they can get a nice house ($1.2 mil seems a little excessive, but whatever)? How do you know they didn’t pay their dues already and live in mid-lower class either growing up or prior to their current situation?
Sorry, Oliver, I agree with you most of the time, but here I think you’re making assumptions based on superficialities.
