how can this forum be put to direct action to get her fired?
I've been wondering this too. I suspect it would be pretty difficult, since it's clear she didn't get the job because she knows anything about writing or economics. That leaves personal connections, and it's tough for a bunch of pseudonymous outsiders to strain those to the point where Megan's job would be in jeopardy.
I doubt there's much, if anything, we can do. If you have a subscription, cancel it and let them know Megan is why. Otherwise, maybe a letter to the editor, letters@theatlantic.com, taking issue with a particularly bad column. Realistically, tho, I wouldn't expect this site to go out of business anytime soon. If they didn't fire her for that Jena 6 article, it's gonna take her shouting "n----r" in a crowded theater or summin.
However, someone at The Atlantic is reading us regularly, and there's a ton of people in DC doing so, too. If we can provide some solace to distraught to those who thought they were going to work for the old Atlantic, then that's something, I suppose.
Who knows? I'd guess no, but there are simply a TON of DC area hits. The clique stays aware of us, at least, I suspect. Ton in the sense of half a dozen to a dozen regularly.
McMegan is awful, just awful, but at least she's no longer employed by The Atlantic. Still, no one can read her every day and live, so we've all but given up trying. Let's just be glad her upwards failure has leveled off. Posts here will likely remain few and far between, as will my tweets. M. is still at his place and twitter and now also Whiskey Fire, and Clem maintains well deserved alumnus privileges.
for some reason Google slowly deletes votes from random polls. I think they're trying to rig the results for Jebus. You know Google, always going on about the Good Book and His word...
Who should be fired?
Who is the biggest embarassment to their respective organization?
Which fictional poor kid does Megan picture in her mind when writing about inner city public schools?
Who is the biggest methed-up self-hating queen?
Who's worst at accepting criticism?
Who has the worst case of Clinton derangement syndrome?
Who is Megan's secret dream candidate for President?
If/when Hillary drops out, who will Megan shift her hatred onto?

Yes. And really, beyond the snark factor in cataloging her craziness and ineptitude, how can this forum be put to direct action to get her fired?

But hey, I'm open to suggestions.

Do you think the Atlantic reader is Megan?

All the hits from Washington on my other web log come from various ".mil" sites, the U. S. Congress, & law firms. The identifiable ones anyway.
Well, we got the pentagon and, oddly, several hits from the census bureau, but the DC hits are mostly verizon n the like.
