Does your background matter? Journalism, Private schools etc
It relates to a couple of points in this thread: http://drownedinsound.com/community/boards/social/4315310 particularly the bit about journalists.
Does your background ensure that your views on certain topics shouldn't be taken seriously? Should a guy who went to Eton be employed as a lefty rabble-rouser at The Guardian?
Basically, is hypocrisy ok? Is it even hypocrisy?
