538 was big before it even went to the NYT. It was a pretty fresh take on things back then. It's not purely an academic exercise. Part of this is pure entertainment and Silver is better at that. It's a complex product he's selling and he's very good at it. I say hats off to him.
- basch 10y agosure, but this specific article was about which election forcasts are true. Silver being the poster boy in pop culture is fine, but in this context he shouldnt be the prime example.
