In Popular Culture
Krugman appears as himself in a cameo in the 2010 comedy film Get Him to the Greek.
Singer-songwriter Loudon Wainwright III wrote a song, 'The Krugman Blues', in humorous praise of Krugman, writing "...all the other experts all seem way off base, and I guess that I identify with that pissed-off look on Paul's face". The song was released on the album 10 Songs for the New Depression.

“If they have a popular thought they have to go into a darkened room and lie down until it passes.”
—Kelvin MacKenzie (b. 1946)
“The hatred of the youth culture for adult society is not a disinterested judgment but a terror-ridden refusal to be hooked into the, if you will, ecological chain of breathing, growing, and dying. It is the demand, in other words, to remain children.”
