I love Money Stuff, but even other Bloomberg newsletters are pretty tame from the outrage point of view.
I suppose it's just the editorial style driven by a different marketing strategy than daily newspapers.
- eru 5y agoYes, and also: Outrage is 'entertainment' in the broadest sense. Bloomberg newsletters are read by people who have goals besides entertainment. When you are trading, you suddenly do care about accurate information, instead of just pandering to your existing biases. (Newsletters like Money Stuff is still entertaining enough. It's just not the only goal.) Compare also https://www.cato-unbound.org/2006/11/05/bryan-caplan/myth-rational-voter https://www.cato-unbound.org/2006/11/05/bryan-caplan/myth-ra...
- fakedang 5y agoWhen you're trading, you're also less likely to read newsletters, which are not a source of accurate information. In that respect, Bloomberg is pretty good since their information service on the Terminal is unmatched.
- fakedang 5y agoIt's Bloomberg's main reporting that's getting worse imo.
