They all thought a Trump win would be good for ratings, like the last time. They were wrong.

70. PhDs understand the style problems quite well.

In a doctoral program you must think, write, talk in a very stilted, pedantic, precise way.
You are trained to do this your entire program. This is the style of the highly educated researcher.
Who is using the scientific method to prove hypotheses and develop theories.

The repetition is done for a number of reasons. PhDs are used to proving a point in numerous ways. They have to build a theory brick by brick. And the bricks must be solid with a lot of supporting data.

So we keep pointing out all the data and support of an idea. So this may sound repetitive but if you listen closely there are probably highly subtle nuanced differences.

Also most normal people do not understand this kind of speaking and thinking style, so the PhD gets frustrated and keeps repeating the points in an effort to make people understand the point.

So we see a PhD making a point like they are in their dissertation defense meeting convincing a group of professors to grant them their PhD.

When in reality normal people just want to be told something in quick bullet points. Skip the detail and proof.
