> coming from the fear mongering media
I checked, and it looks like it’s coming from “Arthur C. Brooks”, a 58 year old Harvard professor from Spokane, Washington, who has a spouse and three kids. He’s a real person, with a real life.

- MichaelCollins 4y agoCheck his article history. He's been pumping out one saccharine article a week about how to be happy, how to cope with not being happy, which pet will make you happy, etc. I don't see any fear mongering though. I don't know about credibility, but he's not a fear monger.
- gipp 4y agoI think you missed his point. "The media" didn't write this article, a person did. Other people with the same job, who he doesn't know or control, wrote different opinions, so he's not allowed to have/express his without being called a hypocrite?

- UIUC_06 4y agoI worked at the Daily Illini for part of a semester, and my job was to write headlines. The main concern then was "does it fit in the column head?" I guess now the length constraints are less, unless there's also a print edition. But in any case, it's still probably the job of someone other than the writer.
