I’m not defending Learmount but as someone who has done his fair share of punditry let me tell you what the media is looking for. They want a very complicated subject explained in two minutes in a way that 99% of the population will understand. This is while, depending on where you are being interviewed, someone is talking in your ear and you’re trying not to think of how many million are listening to you making an ar*e of yourself. Not as easy as you think.
