I wish sound bites had more influence. The press is not cooperative because they know big money bosses pay their bills. It's like the biggest institutions are hollowing themselves out by firing the smartest among them and concentrating the loyal and stupid at the top. This is becoming an anti-meritocracy. Rule by Stupidity.
