Tom Friedman Admits It

David Sirota reports on Tom Friedman's shocking admission that he often writes about trade policy proposals that he knows nothing about. Sirota writes, "... what’s truly astonishing is that Tom Friedman, the person who the media most relies on to interpret trade policy, now publicly runs around admitting he actually knows nothing at all about the trade pacts he pushes in his New York Times column." After reading this article, I can't help but wonder how often we, as teachers, teach something that we know very little about beyond superficialities.
