INSTAVISION: Who Killed California’s Economy? I talk with Joel Kotkin, author of The City: A Global History, about “gentry liberalism,” media bias, and California’s disastrous economy. Plus, what it means for the rest of America. (Bumped).

UPDATE: Viewers liked Kotkin’s use of the term “Soft Putinism” to describe today’s politicized media. I prefer the term “An Army of Ezra Kleins.” . . .
