Oh, Fox News, this "We're populist," mantra is so funny, especially coming from you. You list the CEO's of many of the nation's failing businesses along with their educational background. You note that many are from top schools. You draw the obvious conclusion that the schooling is the problem.
Could it maybe be generational though? The majority of those listed graduated college before my generation had even finished grade school. From the Fox listing, it seems that the baby boomers have sort of run out of ideas on how to generated revenue. The argument could easily be made to throw out the baby boomers with their decrepit bathwater.
Fox can stick with their argument though. There are some massive dolts attending some of the world's top schools. Here's a short list of them:
- Rupert Murdoch, Oxford
- Bill O'Reilly, Boston University
- Chris Wallace, Harvard
- Geraldo Rivera, Columbia
- Greta Van Susteren, Georgetown
- Sean Hannity, NYU
Granted, I'm from a state school, so maybe my perception is neither fair nor balanced.
