I'm a "professional class liberal" in the social sciences and I literally can not remember when I last heard someone end a sentence that way. Six months? Ten? Longer?

I've taught Media Literacy before. When I did so I had a hand out on how to establish the expertise of a source.
Having said that, imho responsible & ethical "professionals" self-censor and restrict their pronouncements to those that are explicitly linked to their credentials/area(s) of expertise.

Exasperating.
Seriously distorts the public's understanding of issues.
News media need to do better.
