Harry J. Enten
Introduction
Harry Joe Enten is a senior political writer and analyst and for the website FiveThirtyEight. Enten was described by the Columbia Journalism Review as being of a new generation of political journalists, focusing on data-driven journalism instead of reporting from the campaign trail.
Early life and education
Enten was raised in the Riverdale neighborhood of The Bronx, New York City.
Enten graduated from Dartmouth College in 2011, having chosen the college at least partially due to New Hampshire's status as the first-in-the-nation primary.
Enten began publishing a blog entitled Margin of Error, and held an internship at NBC News Political Unit in Washington, D.C. Prior to working for FiveThirtyEight, Enten was a journalist for The Guardian.
FiveThirtyEight
Along with Carl Bialik and Walter Hickey, Enten was one of the first people Nate Silver hired when FiveThirtyEight relaunched under ESPN. He mostly writes politics articles for FiveThirtyEight, but he occasionally writes weather pieces.
