Ho ho! The day is young, but we already have a good contender for "most blatant clickbait." I'm not sure what's more inane about this: the headline blatantly reframing a book about women in politics to talk about one man's horny statements, or the paragraph justifying this slimy media move by suggesting that the paper can't help but follow a news trend of disproportionately focusing on a tiny section of the whole book.
"But but it generated headlines elsewhere!" says the better-funded paper. 🙄
PUT ME IN COACH.
I'm rarin' and ready to go for this silly week in our deeply unserious world.
💪🏻 Mornin', CoSo!
Oooo, and my sociopath pod's main topic today is hedge funds and how they've created profit resilience across market cycles. I'm going to run well on fury in the park, I can just feel it. :)
@MLClark Good for you for the run! LOL at "little problem" though.
🤣 This podcast literally had a hedgefund manager gloss over 2008 as a "little problem" and admit that a key part of current industry processes is covering for how there isn't enough work for any one fund manager to justify the client fees they're charging - so they group portfolios and strategies to cover for the downtime on individual resources.
One wants to laugh at how scummy the world is, but it's just too bleak when you think about it. At least the weasel-speak fueled an OK run today! 👍🏻
