I was listening to the WSJ podcast about the Sam Bankman-Fried trial yesterday, and there was a moment when the host and one of the guest journalists covering the case were discussing some of the terms that came up in the opening arguments, and one of them had no idea what “fiat” meant.

fiat moment

“Very confusing for everyone, especially the jury.”

Faith in jury trials decreasing…

Think about how dumb the average person is, now realize 1/2 of the are dumber than that.

Classic Carlin

Fiat, like the car? Haha. There’s good reason most people don’t know that term, it’s use is dangerous to those who issue it.

WSJ...

Doesn't the 'J' have something to do with Journalism?

Who vetted these guests?😮😳

Is the podcast any good?

I bet more than 50% of people don't know what 'fiat' means. The echo chamber is strong

That’s scary as hell

We're so early

typical lazy journalists
