Profiles in Ignorance: How America's Politicians Got Dumb and Dumber — Media Incentives
Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.
This episode explores Profiles in Ignorance: How America's Politicians Got Dumb and Dumber by Andy Borowitz as a systems-level analysis of how media-market incentives influence political perception and institutional outcomes.
By focusing on patterns rather than individuals, the episode shows why these systems persist — even when their consequences are widely recognized.
