now extrapolate that to the reality that most of us get our information filtered through people who have no idea what they're talking about.
Plus, I guess it's even weirder in political reporting. At least science journalists (with no science background) speaking with experts on their subject.
Politicians, on the other hand, jump from one diverse department to another - they're no Renaissance-men - and we put our lives in their hands.
Now add out-of-their depth journalists to the mix and Houston, we've got a problem...
