I think, perhaps, you should read some of his other articles before making a judgement call on the Atlantic's quality or Alexis' qualifications.

A decrease in quality was one of the possible explanations. The other was that he is just pandering to the nerds. That is a great article, but it still does not change the fact that I expect people in the publishing business to have a more informed opinion than "people just read VF for the ads." However if you want to make it a debate about the quality of Alexis' writings all I can say is that he is no Christopher Hitchens or Michael Lewis.
