“Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them.

In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.”
– Michael Crichton (1942-2008)

@freemo I agree. but the kings of old had "something to loose", modern "kings" dont have anything to loose but all the things to gain! :)

@freemo Its called "skin in the game" principle, Prof. Nassim Taleb has written a book with the same title.

Hundreds on years ago kings had harems and riches but were first to loose head in war. now plutocrats have more than harems and riches but are termed "TBTF"
