UM: Business Journalism

Reuters reports on a panel discussion at the recent annual meeting of the Society of American Business Editors and Writers. The panel, which looked at whether financial journalists blew coverage of the global financial meltdown, included UM business professor Greg Miller. Says Miller: “There are no longer just investment bankers doing everything today. Everyone’s a specialist. No one banker could explain the entire process of how securitization worked. So it’s asking an awful lot of journalists to break it down and explain when bankers don’t know.” [Source]
