gems from the comments:

Academics and Journalists could interview an arbitrary EA forum user on a particular area if they wanted to get up to speed quickly.

Why don’t academics and journalists do their job properly and interview random forum members to inform their research?

why don’t people who think what we do is terrible and corrupt make us feel better about ourselves? this just shows their bad faith,
