Stiglitz regularly appears on CNN, CNBC and FOX News. Additionally, he is a syndicated columnist and his op-eds and articles have appeared in The Financial Times, Vanity Fair and Newsweek, among others. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for his role in creating a new branch of economics called “The Economics of Information.” His work explains the circumstances in which markets do not work well, and how selective government intervention can improve their performance.
