Harry Joe Enten (born March 1, 1988)[1][2] is an American journalist known for his former role as a senior political writer and analyst for the website FiveThirtyEight[3] and his current job as a senior writer and analyst for CNN Politics.[4]
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. [5]
Early life and education
[edit]Enten was raised in a Jewish family[2][6][7][8] in the Riverdale neighborhood of The Bronx, New York City.[5] Harry was introduced to politics as a child when his father, a judge, took him into the polling booth to help pull the levers for elections. He attended Riverdale Country School. He is the nephew of singer-songwriter Neil Sedaka, who married Enten's aunt.[7]
Enten graduated magna cum laude, and Phi Beta Kappa from Dartmouth College in 2011. Enten chose to attend Dartmouth at least partially due to New Hampshire's status as the first-in-the-nation primary.[8][9]
Enten began publishing a blog called Margin of Error, and held an internship at NBC News Political Unit in Washington, D.C.[8][5] Prior to working for FiveThirtyEight, Enten was a journalist for The Guardian.[5][10]
FiveThirtyEight
[edit]Along with Carl Bialik and Walter Hickey, Enten was one of the first people Nate Silver hired when FiveThirtyEight relaunched under ESPN.[5][11] He mostly wrote politics articles for FiveThirtyEight, but he occasionally wrote weather pieces. Enten was also one of the co-hosts of the FiveThirtyEight politics podcast,[12] alongside host Jody Avirgan and fellow co-hosts Nate Silver and Clare Malone.
He announced on February 5, 2018, that he was leaving FiveThirtyEight to join CNN's Politics team as a senior political writer and analyst.[13][14]
The Forecast Fest
[edit]From April 2019 to March 2020, Kate Bolduan, John Avlon, and Harry Enten produced The Forecast Fest podcast about the 2020 United States presidential election.[15]
