Newsbusters:
The Washington Post hopes you may want to "Widen Your World," with online "Master Class" courses that cost $200-$300 a pop.
For example, there's Steven Pearlstein's "Introduction to Economic Literacy."
[Lesson number one: don't spend $300 to have a liberal journalist lecture you.]
I wrote about Mr. Pearlstein three times in 2008, (

here and
here) but stopped because I realized that chronicling the astonishing economic illiteracy of WaPo's (anti) business reporter was like shooting ducks in a barrel and had become boring. Now WaPo is laughably offering up Pearlstein as some sort of economic literacy expert, which is akin to touting Michael Moore as a diet and fitness guru.
