The Financial Crisis – A View from the Arts
I am currently listening to an interview done by Eleanor Wachtel of CBC radio and “Writers & Company” podcast fame . She is interviewing David Hare, an english playwright. He states some enlightening comments, atleast to me. You can also subscribe to this series of podcasts on iTunes. In iTunes, just search for “Writers and Company”
The link follows;

This interview made me realize how insightful a comment can be made by others outside of a specific industry which you want to study or learn about. Doing an interview from within that specific industry is useless and counterproductive, because it tends to be “Totally Biased” with the “can do no wrong” attitude and disposition.
For an interesting, fresh and insightful, perhaps even “profound” view, ask someone from outside the industry. The more distant, the better !
