The Court Jester

My Youtube comment on it:

Why does the entertainer or the prankster and the court jester always seem to know more than the bumbling fools of the court itself? The half witted journalist and the politician went off into never land and only the jester kept his eye on the ball, as usual. Watching journalists like that trying to understand the banking system is like watching children trying to understand sleight of hand or a shell game.
