Professor Paul Krugman wins the Nobel Prize
AP story here.
This makes me very happy (and not just because Krugman is the only Nobel winner I’ve actually read before he won).
Now he’ll have to be introduced on the TeeVee as “Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugman,” which has a much nicer ring than “shrill lefty economist and blogger Paul Krugman” (or words to that effect).
His not-at-all shrill (and more ‘reasonable liberal’ than ‘lefty’) blog can be found here, and his Monday and Friday New York Times columns can be found here (you may have to register, but there’s no charge now like there used to be. A charge I paid happily, BTW).
