Nate Silver—gone

Another one bites the dust, it seems. Nate Silver, famed but misguided and often self-deluded prognosticator who heads up FiveThirtyEight.com, has been fired by ABC News, with whom FiveThirtyEight is associated. ABC, which is owned by Disney, says it wants to retain the "brand," but not Silver himself. Tim Pool is again ecstatic as he watches the mainstream media implode. I share his happiness, but I wish the implosion could happen faster.
