Ben Bernanke's Fed Transparency ... Transparent Ploy?

Under Ben Bernanke, a more open and forceful Federal Reserve ... In what might be his final years as chairman of the Federal Reserve, Ben S. Bernanke is transforming the U.S. central bank, seeking to shed its reclusive habits and make it a constant presence in bolstering the economy. The new approach would
make the Fed's policies more responsive to the needs of the economy — and likely more forceful, because what the Fed is planning to do would be much clearer. A key feature of the strategy would be producing a detailed set of scenarios for when and how the Fed would intervene, which would mark a
dramatic shift for an organization that throughout its history has been famously opaque. – Washington

information when it came to central banking and thus there wasn't much launched that was critical of the
current system.
