The Atlantic has fired Kevin Williamson.
Odd, though, that the publisher cited workplace-environment concerns as the impetus rather than the “especially violent belief” itself:
The top editor emphasized that Williamson’s firing was not a result of his being anti-abortion—a common position for deeply religious Americans of all political stripes—but because of what his especially violent belief could mean for workplace relationships with female colleagues who may or may not have had an abortion.
