I try not to use the word “pundit” like a slur. Interpreting and summarizing political news is important work. So important it is a focal point for manipulation. Still, it’s just as possible that “market pressures” have perverse effects. In particular, sensational “news” sells better than sober assessments and “news” that tells you that uncertain events will go the way you want is more appealing than saying “we don’t know.”
