2/Here are some groups in America who might reasonably be called "elites": 1. Tech industry businesspeople 2. D.C. lawyers and politicos 3. NYC finance people 4. Hollywood people 5. Academics at universities scattered throughout the country 6. Writers 7. CEOs
The common ground is the desire of mass appeal. Corp marketing (for profit), Hollywood celebs (for roles), DC politicians (for public elections), media outlets (to get clicks). It becomes a circle, with one amplifying the other. The convergence of interest make up the “elites”.

Too many examples of elites not confined to stereotypical geography attributed in this thread for the conclusions being made. Plenty of influence in finance not in nyc , tech not in SF, etc .
