The Dream Team of Larry Summers and Chrystia Freeland
Posted on January 28th, 2013 in Uncategorized | 3 Comments »
Here’s a great picture of Larry Summers wearing what appear to be fake Timberlands workboots while being interviewed by Chrystia Freeland, who hired Summers as a columnist for the FT, at Davos last week.
(I can’t support the boots-and-suits look, but to be fair, LHS is looking pretty fit and trim; rumor has it he’s excised the Diet Cokes—which, ironically, are fattening—from his diet.)
Here are some other pictures of Larry Summers being interviewed by Chrystia Freeland.

Yes, every time I see Freeland interview Summers I wonder why she comes off as over-the-top obsequious…in her Reuters article, she refers to him as the “Delphic Oracle” of Davos. http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/01/24/us-column-freeland-idUSBRE90N1CL20130124

The Delphic Oracle of Davos? Oh, dear.
Also, if DGF really feels that way, she should probably not participate on panels called “Women in Economic Decision-Making.” I understand that you can be on the panel to disagree with its thesis, but it’s a little bit of trying to have your cake and eat it too.
