Who are these academics people like you like to piss on? Lots of left academics I know do things like teach in prisons or work on living wage campaigns - even the ones with prose styles you don't like. I know it's fun to take cheap shots like this - O'Reilly would be proud, too! - but it's really a load of crap.
