Abstract

It is well-known that economic experts (as well as other experts) are biased. However, it is not normally demonstrated systematically. By identifying and analyzing the viewpoints of the most quoted Danish expert on five characteristic debates bias is demonstrated. The character of the bias is analyzed including the underlying arguments. Finally, possible implications of the results are discussed – especially for journalists coping with experts while at the same time trying to do a proper work.
