I too wanted everything to be very serious and nuanced and detailed and written and had qualms about making it simple & entertaining but Mike convinced me this is how you get people outside the circle to take notice. To want more detail. He was right. He knows how to do this.

Mike calls it the spearhead. It introduces people to the problem and makes them want to know more. Has to be simple and sharp and accurate. He will feed them more information and he has already. We also get to direct them to our writing and talk to inquirers.

As I said, if it is reaching more people, and (most importantly) if it helps persuade policy makers not to make decisions based on the crap on those fields, then count me very happily wrong about the video.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
