This always comes up with this prize, but it’s generally considered one of the Nobel prizes, although it’s not one of the original prizes. Your opinion on whether it should count is up to you, but to call it media manipulation is reading a lot of malice into it.
Argument is that economists knew exactly what would happen when they got linked with Nobel Prizes and help solidify economics as hard science like physics, medicine or math in eyes of the public. Begin debate around how scientific is some economics.
Is math considered a science?
Yes?
You can form hypothesis and prove it or not.
