it's far too late to gloat, if indeed she was fired, as seems the case. The Atlantic is long dead, and while Fallows and TNC remain, what happens to its corpse is really only worth noting with morbid curiosity.
But Megan McArdle no longer works for The Atlantic, and her star seems to have been slowed some in its rising.
This is a good thing.

Mme.'s made a mere three posts since getting the Beastweek gig. Maybe she's saving her strength for a long, serious cover piece in the new Newsweek, or is finishing the book she "took a leave" to work on. Or already's been fired but it was just too embarrassing for anyone to mention it.
Or just enjoying the summer off, as so many of the wealthy did before the invention of air conditioning. No reason now for them to go to the beach/mtns. for three mos., but that hasn't stopped them.
As long as she's enjoying her broccoli margaritas. (No idea if that's some awful joke or ...)
I think she's basically a freelancer,maybe that explains her lack of health insurance issues. Given Megan's level of greed, I bet she's submitting stuf left and right,only to have all of it rejected by downtown Tina's people--who won't pay for drivel. Stay tuned.
I have to admit to being amused by the fact I know a semi-regular Beast contributor.
Who has, in fact, half tried to get me to write something to submit to them.
Such a small world is publishing.
Meh.
I hope she can find the coverage she needs for her health, genuinely. Maybe going through this will humble and deepen her, but karma isn't mine to dispense.
She's in Italy, twittering & overeating
I haven't been following the Atlantic now for several years. After reading her for maybe a month, I concluded she was among the dumbest people on the planet. Publishing her at all was indeed the publication's death knell.
Having said that, the Atlantic and its larger company are making money, and the Daily Moron almost certainly isn't. So she stepped onto a sinking ship.
Good.
Looks like McMegan's request for permission to suck has been denied.
what a bunch of masturbating clowns you are...
