Bernanke’s PR Push

Bernanke is on a PR campaign, according to this article on the WSJ.  Bernanke wants the the world’s most influential central bank to be more open and simple, but that’s a challenge as Congress lashes on attacks and the public remains “confused.”  The article notes that, ” Mr. Bernanke is taking his campaign for openness in directions he hadn’t anticipated.”  Seems to me that less than half of the time of being in politics is doing something.  Most of the time is spent explaining and defending what you did.
